Did anyone check the oil level when new? When I picked mine up it had 54km on it and I checked the oil level soon as I got home and it was only at the halfway mark on the dipstick. I got the dealer to top it up the next time I went past and it hasn't used a drop now in the next 34,000km. I reckon it was never filled from the start as it wouldn't use half a litre in 60km and then nothing afterwards.
btw They reckon 54km is normal for new cars delivered by them (Norris in Kedron, Brisbane) but I have been used to my new cars having around 5km when delivered. it wasn't being used as a demo as it was sitting on display on a shipping container in front of the showroom.Nov '15 Polo 81TSI manual white
