Vw polo 2005 1.6 trend not getting hot air in the cabin always blowing cold air no mater how long i have been driving.

the way any motor vehicles interior heater works is by allowing water from the engines cooling system to circulate through a mush smaller radiator located behind the dashboard and the fan blows air through the radiator allowing the warm water to heat the air so when you select warm or cold via the interior controls a valve fitted in line of the water pipes that is linking the engine bay radiator to the interior one allows water to flow which makes me believe that valve is not functioning

2002 vw polo 1.4 only blows cold air (fan works fine on all speeds)

In all modern cars there is a tiny DC electric motor driven gear drive that moves a plastic door that blends heated and cooled air from the AC and the heater core, this is called (interestedly enough) the air temperature control blend door actuator. The motor that moves this door fails because the door starts sticking from warping, most common complaint is no heat but it can be no AC as well. To replace these parts (blend door and blend door actuator) you must remove the entire dash from the car. Always have this problem confirmed by a dealer or qualified repair shop as it is a very expensive repair.

1986 VW Golf heater blows cold air

The heater in your car depends upon a flow of hot coolant going through the heater core in order to get hot air into the car. If the heater core is partially plugged, it will restrict the flow. If you have a head gasket that is putting exhaust into the cooling system, it will eventually get into the heater core. When this happens there is no coolant in the heater core to make the air warm. If the water pump vanes have corroded away the result will be very poor coolant circulation causing the heater to not blow hot air. If your car is equipped with a heater control valve that is not functioning properly, the coolant flow will be restricted. One or a combination of these factors is likely the culprit in your case.
if the car is not overheating, the thermostat is working fine.... replace or flush the heater core multiple times to try and eliminate sediment build-up.
