Do you have the driver assist pack? I only ask as I note you have front sensors but not on the side of the bumper. I’m wondering if those are specific to the active park assist that comes with that pack.

I’d not noticed that before.
No DAP, just front sensors (seemingly standard fit on a Vignale).

All good?
So far, so good. Very smooth and responsive on the 50 mile drive back from the dealership. Had a little play with the toys. I now realise that reading the Puma handbook online before I picked it up helped but I had hoped for more toys than it actually has e.g. no auto door lock/unlock at 12mph. But I'm very pleased with the car.

Nice car, looks amazing.

How are you finding it driving wise? I’ve ordered the same engine but won’t be here until end of November. I’m currently driving manual version of the same engine.

I'm very impressed. Engine/gearbox is very responsive (compared to my old B-Max 1.6 automatic tractor). I've not tried sports mode yet, not given it some wellie yet, but it got enough bhp for me, you could feel it pulling up hills very easily. Auto gearbox is very smooth.

Does the Vignale 155 have flappy paddles for manual shifting?

Yes, it does. They work, both in D and M modes on my auto box. :)

I think the auto door lock was not allowed by our beloved EU in some 2015 directive. Maybe it’s only for the Oz market - or maybe the US if it’s ever sold there?

Maybe it’s something the U.K. could look at now, but then again maybe our gov agree that it’s not a safety feature they see as being safe,
