The build sheet is under the carpet in the boot. It will look something like this; (taken from my build sheet, with serial numbers anonymised)

Code:
G123 24-5 697289 EG I don't know what this signifies.
VSS ZZZ 1M Z 2B123456 VIN code; Chassis number 2B123456
1M28 24 1M2824 is the complete model code
TOLEDO TDI 8 SIGNA Model designation for 1M2824 in MY02
81 MNO C5M 81 = engine power in KW
ASV EGS Engine code and Gearbox code
LS5N ---- ---- KU Paint No and interior code
After this you get a series of 3-character Option codes which indicate what options were installed at the factory.

The VIN code breaks down like this;
