My wife and I went to collect her new Dig-T 4WD CVT-M6 this afternoon from a dealer in London (area and name withheld). All went well, vehicle perfect and well presented. Purchase completed by debit card and off for the rundown on how it all works. Thirty minutes later we set off onto the dual carriageway and half a mile to a big roundabout and it stalls and will not restart.
Typical London drivers response lean on horns (tosspots, glad we are going to move away soon), we manage to roll around the corner off the roundabout and stop. Call garage and they send someone out very quickly. Diagnosis, no petrol!!!!!!
.
They bring some out and back to the garage and apparently when they did the PDI, they forgot to put any petrol in. We were headed for a garage, but enough petrol for half a mile, Jeeez.
End result, they filled the tank which must have cost about £70. Moral of story, ask the garage how much petrol has been put in and if in doubt ask for more.
PS car is fabulous and will give it a proper test tomorrow after we have calmed down. 250 mile drive planned for Saturday.
