Your local VW may be able to.

Have you looked for the sticker inside the boot?

Under the carpet either in or next to the spare wheel well.

Or as Len said ring your nearest VW dealer and give them the reg.

Its either in the boot or in your service manual for the car, its inside of the cover page of the manual.
