I went for a test drive in a GTD and the dealership had one just off the transporter, not fully inspected etc. and the chap only drove it across the road before apologising and saying we couldn't take it out as the steering was locking up and showing various errors on the display. He seemed to imply it was fairly common, there's always things to sort on new cars which surprised me

Ended up getting one on a lease anyway and (touch wood) it's been faultless over the last 6 months, but then I don't know what was replaced before it was handed over!
