Not a major problem apart from the fact if I drive off immediately then I don't need the accelerator as the car simply pulls me along until the revs drop down - I can drive half a mile without touching the throttle ! Its like driving a frisky horse that just wants to bolt !
The only way round it seems to be to accelerate PAST the 1500rpm and then brake - it then seems to behave normally.
Any ideas ? I know I'm going to have to take it in which is a ball ache as I'm pushed for time and on an 8 week old £40k car !

Completely normal for a cold start. Its to get things warmed up a little faster. You should wait to start driving until the RPMs come down anyways.
