Surprise surprise, another dodgy used car dealer selling VWs......
To answer your initial question, no you are not being unreasonable. I had all of these issues after I bought my golf, I was at the point that I was just going to sell it on and be done with it because the dealer in H****m I bought it from was such a pack of c**** and blatently lied straight to my face.
One situation was all the electrics in the passenger front door didn't work so I used that to try and pull out of the sale. Then the owner of the yard turned around and said "it was a f***ing fuse you little p***k, that's a consumable so that's not good enough for you to get out of this, you're paying for that f***ing car". So I went down there with payment, scared out of my wits when the salesman I dealt with came and saw me, apologising on behalf of the owner. When I handed over my cooling off letter, he said the problem fuse has been fixed, therefore my letter was redundant, without realising the reciept of all the work done to the car was sitting infront of him wigh was basically an entire wiring loom for the door, new window regulator, new power mirror setup and central locking module. At that point I picked up the reciept and said" L**e, I know you're just trying to be nice, but I don't trust you because you're a used car salesman. Which means you're a proffesional liar. So next time you want to lie to a customer, make sure the evidence isn't in front of the customer." At which point the "but, but, but, wait, hang on" started.
Anyway, moral of the story: Don't try to be nice because they will deliberately screw you around until the warranty period has run out so then they don't have to fix a thing, then you're screwed. Go straight to the top, I just wish I had when I had the opportunity....
