Took my little Buzzbomb back to the stealers yesterday to have the fuel consumption looked into. Got a call at 1pm telling me the car is ready for collection and what a surprise, no fault found!
Seems my car is doing more MPG than Citroen says it does. As soon as they said that, I knew which route they took it on. Doing 4 miles downhill back to the workshop on a light throttle opening at 60 with the trip reset is obviously going to come back with outstanding figures. I asked the mechanic if he took that route and he said yes, so at least I'm not paranoid.
To add insult to injury, they have damaged the car. Sat on the back step this morning, I glanced at the car and saw a crease down the drivers door. It's a proper crease where the door has been opened in to something and it's put a 5 inch crease where the door skin meets the door shell. Is there any point in saying anything? Although I know it wasn't there before as I washed the car on the way to the dealers and know every mark on it, they're just going to deny it. I didn't see it on collection as it was convieniently parked tight to a large van. I'm so angry right now and starting to wish I'd gone elsewhere.
