On the way home tonight the "stop/start" light came on, followed by the engine managment light, a warning triangle, the transmission light then when I tried to change gear on the Auto box "gear unavailable".
Limped to dealer with only 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears.
Expected the car to last longer than 900 miles. . . . . . . . . . . .
 
There seems to have been quite a lot of issues with the auto boxes. At least at 900 miles it'll still be under warranty, just take it back to the garage and get it sorted. (y)

Came across something on the Panda forum of a guy with a dualogic that wouldn't change gear. He disconnected the battery to reset the ECU and then everything was fine. It will be interesting to see what the Garage will do...
 
Turns out it was a faulty brake booster switch in the Stop Start system causing the engine managment going into "safe" mode and limiting speed.
All done and dusted now. (y)
