theres 1 in the engine bay at the top left just below the top of the suspension.

i have a 51 plate mk 3 ibiza tdi 110 sport
 
The white label in the boot will have the VIN number at the top of it and should have all the info needed to tell you all you need to know about your car(s)
I have a list on my PC at home which tells you how to interpret the label and will post it tonight after work
VIN number is usually visible through a little clear window in the shaded area round the edge of the windscreen
 
as promised, unfortunately its in longhand as I cant post an attachment, so I have kept it as brief as poss
if yu can't make any progress PM me your chassis number and I'll have a try

"if anybody's interested, the VIN Number breaks down like this

VSS ZZZ 1M Z 2B123456

123456=Production sequence number=Chassis number
B=Manufacturing plant=Brussels, Belgium
2=Model Year = 2002

Z=Check digit=Blank filler
1M=Body Style=Toledo
ZZZ=Blank filler
VSS=Country of Origin, Manufacturer:V=Europe,VS=Spain, VSS=SEAT

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;
Code:
VSS ZZZ 1M Z 2B012345
||| ||| || | ||||||||
||| ||| || | ||++++++-Production sequence number (i.e. chassis number)
||| ||| || | |+-------Manufacturing plant (B Brussels, Belgium)
||| ||| || | +--------Model Year - 2 2002
||| ||| || +----------Check digit - Z, filler
||| ||| |+------------Engine
||| ||| +-------------Body Style
||| +++---------------Vehicle Attributes - ZZZ, filler
+++-------------------Origin: V Europe,VS Spain, VSS SEAT

Of course the build sheet only tells you the condition of the car when it was delivered.

First three VIN characters: Manufacturer

Europe is indicated by a first character of S-Z. Within this range, Spain has the codes VS-VW. Skoda's TM indicates Czech Republic, and anything beginning with a W is from Germany.
