That's the spirit. Drive the wheels off it, they love to rev, pick up quickly enough, thrum along quite happily @75 and are nice and comfy. Sure you'll love it.
True. Just nipped out and blew a BMW X1 away with ease. He was trying hard too.
Must grow up but this car does that to you.

Thanks for the replies. Very much appreciated. I'm looking forward to picking it up (one more sleep). I'll let you know what battery make it has once its home. I'll pop a photo on the gallery too while it's still clean.
One more thing... You should consider asking your dealer to show you your car on ETIS tomorrow, that way you can make sure that all the software modules are up to date.
Spoke to my dealer about possibly getting the battery changed for a Varta and they agreed with my comment that I’d have to “jump thru a lot of hoops to get it changed under warranty”

Strange stance from the dealer but I think there must be a difference in the two 12v batteries used - if the hybrid uses the 48v for stop start then it shouldn’t need a 12v stop start battery, which I understand is more expensive.
I’m going to check now to see what batteries are recommended for both types of engine.
