it's probably the Logic 850/950. They were the ones that they fitted the most of i think.

The alarm kept going off on mine but i just turned the sounder off - there should be a key on one of your keyrings that fits the sounder under the bonnet.

But, if you're looking for conformation on the model of the alarm, remove the glovebox - 4 screws i think, and the brainbox should be sitting on top of your fan box somewhere.

have you tried going to a VW garage to see if they know or an alarm specialist?
Ive had 3 mk3's and because of insurance reasons ive always had to find out what they were
cos you never get any documentation about them! they have all been standard mk3's and
have all had apollo alarm/immobilisers on them.
