    looks good, same colour as my 5 door new shape, I have heard good things about that engine, and not heard to many down sides about it.

    You need to threaten them with trading standards or something matt if they will not do the work for free. You are right when you buy a new car you would expect it to be right in every single way. They sound like a proper bunch of turd suckers!
