Yes the 'white ball'  There is a "min & max" level mark.  Your coolant should be between the marks.

Coolant is available from motor factors, Halfords, Main Dealerships as said below pink VW sepc coolant. etc etc

Water would serve as an emergency temporary measure if caught short and below well below 'Min'
