Yes they know all about it 13 and 63 plates once you are in the 14 plates problem seem to be sorted that's why we requested this information be posted to help people like yourself and advise them to go for 14 plate on and like any modern car keep it under warranty as they are far to expensive to repair if you get a major failure.

So hopefully after it's been fixed it should be reliable.
Especially as it'll have a new unrated exhaust camshaft and two new turbos.

Yep should be as it will be the same as all the vehicles that have the properly hardend camshaft but i would still keep it under an extended warranty as there is always the UNEXPECTED

I'm not sure actually - there are so many different dates mentioned on here regarding the camshaft problem. What do you think the Build start and end dates should be and how are so sure?

problems with camshaft started much earlier, mine was build April 2013 and already had issue

It would be helpful then if we had a difinitive build range - I will alter my post to April 2013 start.
