Belt or chain cam?
I am considering buying a Polo 1.2TDI (Not the BlueMotion).
Is it chain-cam? I assume as a three cylinder diesel it is a little rough and noisy, but is there anything else against it as the mpg figures are appealing?

No. Belt cam. Doesn't do the mpg figures in real life that were achieved in the EC lab tests.
Real MPG enables you to register the fuel economy you are actually getting against your make and model of car, its engine and type of transmission.
Every time you enter an average consumption figure against your car, the overall average automatically adjusts to reflect it.
