Thanks for the replies guys!
The original reason I was worried that my fuel gauge was busted was because I had recently had my dash instrument cluster replaced due to the issue where the trip button gets stuck in, which seems pretty common! Had the car looked at yesterday by VW and they couldn't ...

Re: Weird fuel gauge behaviour

I'd filled my Polo (65 plate R-Line 110ps) and noticed that my fuel gauge didn't shift from full for about 200 miles. Then went down a tiny bit. Usually I'd see the needle start to move after about 70 or so ...
