Quick trip to the dealer this morning. They connected their laptops and apparently the car was reporting a stuck turbo valve error so not the same issue that has been reported in the US numerous times.

After speaking to Honda UK they just checked over the turbo system to make sure everything was really OK and then reset the errors.

Car seems to be fine again now!

So maybe it shouldn't have happened but they dealt with it quickly and efficiently so all round a pretty decent result.
 
Pleased for you Mutley - the last thing you wanted was it being stuck at the dealers for days while the Mechanics, sorry IT consultants, scratched their heads. Its good to share all this as it will help if/when one of ours has the same so thanks

I thought my rev/shift up lights were broken yesterday.....until I searched the US forum and realised you have to go over 4.5K revs for them to light up!!! Think I am taking this bedding in period a bit too seriously #drivingmissdaisy

Dude, just FLOOR IT. The poor thing must be dying to blow its load. You want get the car so when you park up, you get those cooling metallic pings and pop sounds. Those noises are the sound of a happy R. The car equivalent to a cigarette after sexy time.

Thanks,

I had the same issue with the rev shift lights :) Shame you can't have those and the Turbo/Brake meters on at the same time!

I've discovered a couple more features which are quite neat in a novelty sort of way.

The little flashing blindspot warning indicators on the wing mirrors are quite cool (yes before anyone says I do look over my shoulder) and the Auto High/Low beam is actually pretty neat. Now if only I could configure it to switch the high beam back on 1 second earlier :)
 
Lane assist with radar cruise on the M1 last night was pretty cool. Drove itself basically for a few miles before I remembered its not a tesla

And its warned me I am about to have a crash a few times...which is nice...

That's not bad at all..

I got a bit off the price and mats. Hopefully I'll wrangle a tank of fuel as well.

What bedding in period?!!? The engine is bedded in from factory! Don't abuse the car but definitely use the full rev range. The only thing you need to think about bedding in are the brake pads really.
 
They have to fill it so they can do their sales test drive/checks.

What was peoples miles on collection
