Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
What hasn't gone wrong? No spare key provided and vehicle manual/service book missing. Still waiting on these items. Three days after getting the car it was returned to the dealer for repairs. Four out of five of the seat belts didn't work properly and also a rattling noise was coming from the boot. It turned out that it had a broken boot lock. Several weeks later, the car was again returned as the speakers in the back didn't work and also the rattling noise in the boot had started again. A front headlight bulb blew and it cost £200 to repair as the only way to access the headlamps is via the front wheel arch. Just waiting on the next thing to break
