After driving car locally, short distances the engine is still hot after being parked at least an hour? Is this normal for the Adam or should I contact the dealership. Only purchased this week and car is under warranty.

If you are only using it for short journeys the engine / radiator coolant fan may not be reaching the temperature where it is activated and cools the engine . This is normal on most cars . Keep an eye on temp gauge or temp warning light ( whatever is fitted on that car ) and coolant level but think you should be o.k
