Update:
Arnold Clark have agreed to provide me with a replacement car.
So in a week or so's time I'll be getting my hands on a Tuscany Green (sand and olive interior with green dash) 4x4 TA with Winter Pack, height adjustable driver's seat, 3 rear seats with 60:40 split and space-saver spare wheel - which is ironically enough pretty much bang on the colour and spec I actually wanted in the first place but wasn't able to get at the time without a long factory order wait!! It's costing me the spec difference but I'm OK with that.
I am happy with the replacement car as opposed to a full refund as there just isn't any other car out there that I'd rather have for my particular driving requirements. I just hope the gearbox behaves itself… but I don't see why it shouldn't as it's not as if the Internet is full of other Pandas with defective gearboxes - just Alsation1 and I that I'm aware of.
Cheers,
Mike
