I bought an NOS one a while back of Nick (empi Pervert) and it is not the correct one for my cap (ID is to large, OD was about right. I'll measure it up for you when I get home later tonight and let you know.

Anybody know how to remove a locking petrol cap - without a key?

The cap is a metal one, goldish in colour - dunno if it's VW).

Thanks.

Can't you just buy sheets of gasket cork from a motor factors?

I think a piKEY would be able to get it off. Might notice a difference in the contents of your tank though.
