New used Phedra

Hello! I bought my Phedra (2.2 JTD Emblema with blue alcantara interiors and dark grey exterior) in early december, and before i got it, i searched extensively thru this great forum and managed to get a few important heads up.
The list of things to fix were a bit long, and i got the car with a few issues to solve, wich will be addressed starting tomorrow (and hopefully for 2 or 3 days). I only made about 2000kms with the car and i'm getting a bad fuel average (about 11.5 ltr per 100km) . I mean i hardly get past 2500 rpm. On my old car i got an average of 8.8 ltr and i really had a HEAVY(er) foot!
Granted i used to drive another diesel car with 155hp and had to really take it down a notch, just because i can't compare driving a 1200Kg/155hp sports car with this 1800Kg/130hp beast. One thing is bothering me besides the fuel average, when i turn off the car, if i happen to go to the trunk i sense a strange smell comming from the exaust, can't quite describe it, and i get no errors in the obc...
All in all, i still think i made agood purchase, lots of room, the wife and kids love it and it's quite comfortable!
Sorry for the speech, again, it's great to be a part of this community!
