Had a similar experience last week.
As some of you know my daily driver is a Pug 107!😆
Booked in for its first service and drove away with a brand new 208.
Was only told its a turbo diesel ,and after a few miles couldn't believe how gutless it was and any progress
around town was to rev the nuts of it second gear!
On closer inspection of the handbook and the tax disc which was nil cost found out I was driving
a 1200cc Dyson/Swampy Eco warrior car that had 1 bhp less than my 107 which weighed 500kg more!!
There is a saying "there ain't no substitute for cc's😃
