just bought a leon, warning light illuminates on oil and beeps 3 times?

[randolph]

hi i just bought a 2001 leon 1.6 16v, on startup the oil indication light illuminates and the car beeps 3 times, once the beeps have stopped the ligh continues to flash constantly. i have read in the manual that this car should not be driven, their appears to be plenty of oil and the car drives fine, nice and smooth, the engine is a tiny bit tappy but this gets better as the engine warms up. is this a common problem or have i been sold a dud



any info will help

cheers
