Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

Is the dealership pulling a dodgy? Please help

Fair enough. I wouldn't be happy with a brand new car having those km on it.
It's not unusual for cars to come into the country and end up in a holding yard at Patrick's or the dealer. You have 3 dates: build date, compliance date and date first registered. Warranty starts from when the car is first registered which if you're buying a demo you lose the bit of warranty from when the dealer registered the car until you pick it up.
The dealer likely was trying to pull a swifty. But they should have discussed the cars they had available and given you an option for the one with some demo drives on it for a discount. Then nobody would have been upset.
