New Tiguan - How many KM should be on the Odometer when collecting from Dealer ?

[PeteC]

I bought a demo, which has been standing in the dealership for 6 months, it had 31 kms on the clock.
I also drove a loan car, which had 8 kms on the clock.. Funny, because that loan car was given to me by VW while my car was in the service.

Just picked up a rental Skoda Superb at Munich airport with 13km on the clock...
My Tiguan had 26.

You want as little as possible, anything more than 15-20 for a major city dealership would be used for other purposes.

I used to work at Audi Brisbane and cars off the boat to dealership was about 4km. Pre delivery Inspection adds a max of 5km, then a fuel trip plus a window tint trip if outsourced.

The most important part of the engine run in is the first 100km, so anything over 20km, I would say won't be helpful for a good run in.

If a regional dealership then more is expected, but over 50 as someone has had, that's having a laugh.

Collected my Tiguan today and it only had 14Km on the clock.

When I worked for Ford Broadmeadows, the plant QA guys took an 'overnight car' home and back to work on trade plates to check the production cars on the roads. If they put more than 50km on them then a little sticker was put on the side window saying they had been tested. Of course, if they wanted to drive further, they disconnected the odo.

Mine had 38km

Mine had a mere 8km! I know the dealer delivered the car mighty fast after it was cleared from the dock, so probably no chance to drive around!
