Why would VW Polo have difficulty changing from first to second gear with new clutch?

Adding more info to this: The problem is only changing from 1st to 2nd, downshifting from 3rd to 2nd is fine. This is only an intermittent problem and but does happen in approx 50% of gear shifts. Sometimes it is as if the gear is simply not there and I have to go straight to 3rd, other times it slips straight into 4th instead of 2nd. I would really like to know what is wrong with the car as I only just bought it and my last one was a rotten car!

Why does my car shudder when going from first to second gear?
It's possible that you have a problem with your clutch. Alternatively, you may simply be releasing the clutch too early or too suddenly when changing gear, not giving the various cogs sufficient time to 'mesh' properly. First gear is a powerful gear, and requires more care when changing up from (or down to) than most others. Fully depress the clutch and lay off the revs when changing to second gear, and try to effect a slower, more gradual release when taking your foot off the clutch. As an added precaution, try to change up to second gear at lower speeds.
What are symptoms that the clutch need to replace?
Difficulty shifting, can't reach first gear and grinds to reverse, have to stomp on the brakes to downshift, basically any sort of unusual difficulty with shifting, car jumps forward when clutch is engaged or moves while on a flat surface and clutch is engaged.

How much to replace a clutch on a 1996 Saturn?
It depends on where you live and where you get it done at. I payed $1,200 for a used transmission and clutch replacment the first time at about 120,000 miles, and $800 when i put in the second clutch at about 160,000 miles. I found out on the second clutch that downshifting to slow the car down is NOT a good idea, because the clutch fins are so thin on Saturns. Mine was a 94 SL2, sure do miss it....
