DB11 broken...
Discussion
My father has had his DB11 since 1st April and covered around 500 miles. All was well until yesterday when the car refused to go over 2k rpm at all (I wasn't in the car, but the car was in D). He managed to limp the car home, luckily the fault occurred before he made it to the A3 in rush hour!
Strange thing is, no warning lights came on at all, just the car wouldn't accelerate. Dad said he had difficulty getting above 30mph as revs weren't high enough. (I presume it didn't work in manual either) Car was taken away by AM today so hopefully they'll come back with a diagnosis. We are going to Germany tomorrow, but luckily in the Range Rover!
Just wondered if anyone else has heard of this issue? From what I've heard they've been fairly reliable (well, for an AM) so far. Part of me is wondering whether it's user error but can't see how?

Wouldn't be Pistonheads without a bit of humour. 
Won't hear from the stelaerfor a few days but I'll update if/when they find a fault.
In other news we got called by Land Rover in the Eurotunnel, as the car giggling about with the engine off triggered a theft alert!
