where are you from?
there was a limited offering of WOB edition's in europe. they are quite rare and rather sought after. in the US how-ever it's just a trimline they slapped on pretty much any other mk2. weather it was made in wolfsburg or in Mexico. so those aren't rare at all.
the 2 pumps on the back are normal. 1 in the tank one on the outside.
186HP.... not impossible at all. but def. not stock. i'd ask the previous owner what has been done to it, or atleast to show some numbers on that claim.

welcome to the forums btw.

i dunno if you can tell by the VIN #. but there are certain aspects that tell you if it's a WOB or not
certain colour and upholstery and stuff.
i'm sure somebody will chime in on the details. if you have pics most people could identify it.
