"Smooth, fast and safe"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

After collecting the car from the dealer and arriving home I couldn't open the bonnet as the cable was broken/something that was missed in the PDI. The dealer made a temporary fix but I had to wait three weeks for a new cable from Germany.

General comments?

The turbo engine is very responsive and smooth.

The climate control well worth having.

The car grips the road well and comes into it's own on country roads.

A very enjoyable car to drive which feels solid and safe.

How can you award 10/10 for reliability when the car was delvered with a fault?

I think that 6000 miles later, just one problem on delivery is pretty good reliability. Remember that reliability is different from initial quality.
