Well the day finally arrived and I went to pick up my gleaming new RCZ 200 GT in Amber red.
Did the handover with the sales guy and off I went.
3 miles later I arrived at the traffic lights at the start of the slip road onto the motorway, front of the queue, ready to give it a first try.
Lights turned to green, I set off, a warning sign came up saying "engine fault, repair needed"
I then trundled down the slip road at about 25 miles an hour with a big queue of cars behind me.
No power whatsoever, seemed like the turbo had fallen off and was running on 2 cylinders.
VERY embarrassing.
Peugeot said it was 2 sensors causing the problem, but eventually they couldn't find anything wrong, apart from they updated the software.
Didn't fill me with confidence, but so far I've done about 800 miles without further problems. :dance:
Absolutely love the car.
The only gripe I have is the ride, I didn't realise how bumpy some of the motorways are.
