As I said to Fud - apologies for the wasted journey. I'm as gutted as you are.
I had no idea it was using oil - if I was trying to pull a fast one I'd have at least made sure it was full on the dipstick.
Car is booked in on Tuesday for a diagnosis - hopefully it won't be too costly and of course it is withdrawn from sale until it's fixed. After that any RAC etc inspection is welcomed.
