Here's a look at the cover in front of the diesel tank. I'm thinking it's similar to the one on the 207 that Piwo reported on.
In this one you can see how it goes behind the tank.
I have one last test drive booked for tuesday week at another dealer in a place called Clonee, Co.Meath. The terrain is flat and a friend has said he'll help me in his Hyundai Trajet....hint hint....
I'm thinking it's the only way to beat this.
