  • Peugeot 208 2015 - Small Claims Court to reject car? 28 Jul 2023 (Forum)

Back story is on the 'Technical' forum, but a summary is: We bought a 2015 "Style" (1.2 VTI) from a dealer last week. On the drive home it manifested an EPS fault, and I phoned the supplying dealer there and then. They asked me to find out what the problem was and they'd foot the bill.
