    The ice was not in anyway visible the garage said it was ice but no other cars that were speeding past me had a problem.

    They were driving in a different lane to you.

    I only bought the car 6 weeks ago I am the second driver, i did not test drive it and I didn't realise there was anything wrong with peugeoots otherwise I obviously wouldn't have got one!

    On the insurance or of the car?

    How do you know how many have driven it?

    Why not get someone else with a few years motoring experience in different cars to take the Pug for a spin and get a second opinion on it.
    Ideally that someone else would someone with a working knowledge of the mechanics of a car and be able suggest / diagnose anything questionable found.
    Saying a car "feels funny" or you lost control isn't really much to go on if you want to return the car to the dealership.

    did you get it from a car super market is that why there was no test drive

    those places are well dodgy they sell you the car before they even have it

    No from a proper dealership I drove the same make and model but the car was at their other garage much further away
