Hi, I'm David and I'm writing from Wales, I acquired my first C1 VTR+ hatchback last Friday it has done less than 4000 miles , I used to drive a Berlingo Van so it's quite a change! It's a 2010 reg. and my first automatic transmission car so I'm finding it a very different drive indeed by comparison. I'm a bit flummoxed by the gear changes at the moment. There seems to be a delay when the C1 is about to change gear, especially between 4th and 5th gear. If it passes through 40 mph to 50 mph in 4th it will not go into 5th gear! I haven't got an owners handbook, the garage where I got the car is getting me one. I don't know anything about the car so I'm assuming it is my driving style-mainly slow! It hates hills and, living in S. Wales, they are difficult to avoid! I look forward to dropping in on the C1 forum a lot in the future. Regards to all, David
