Is it the OD of the whole lot assembled with springs? or just the shock it's self that you're after? Very roughly speaking, the whole lot will be ~90mm OD, and the shock it's self will be ~55mm OD. As the spring's a standard 2.5"ID spring, and the threaded section's the normal diameter to fit ~50mm struts.
Also it may be handy to know that Mk1 Golf rears are the same as the Polo ones, and are often left spare when people use the fronts on Caddys.
