This car has superceeded my previous No1 the Nissan Note.
it's a bit of a hidden gem, not many people know about it...but it's practical, reliable and economic. what more could you want.
As they're not well known, those in the know are snapping these up as prices are low compared to equivalent Honda Jazz or Nissan Note

Daughter got a 2014 with 20k on clock last November. Warranty ends in 2 weeks, it's a Venga '2' 1.6 auto in red and she loves it. Previous car was a Picanto which was 16 years old, never gave her a problem in the 13 years she had it, hope Venga is as reliable, it's certainly a lot more civilized and comfortable.

Hi David, im getting a 2013 auto on Saturday, could you ask your daughter when she drives it does she put it in D which is next to the 3 or does she put it into 1 or 2? Thanks

@@shannonMc96 D is the normal driving position Shannon. Only use hold gear 1 and hold gear 2 when conditions demand. 1 (or L) means you are in 1st if you need 1st held longer when moving off for some reason. 2 for starting in snow or in conditions where less torque required to move off. Auto box won't shift up or down if held in , 2 or 3 it acts as a manual would.

Mine is from 2015. 110.000 km's. I have it for almost 2 years now. The only problem until now is the touchscreen. It doesn't react or react slow. And its very dark. Replacing it for a new one is about 1000 euro's. Way too much!

Try eBay or breakers for a second hand unit. Or there are many people that'll repair the LCD screen. It's often the motherboard connections that wear over time

@@sutsi Thanks for reply sutsi. I think it is the backlight. There are no leds in it, but an old fashion fluorescent light, just as the first lcd tv's had in it. These lights get darker after a few years. Now i only use the reverse camera. IN summer when its warm, i have a reasonable good picture, but when cold, its a bit dark. I don't want to spend any money at it. I'm driving about 5000km per year. And i have mirrors! I must not get too spoiled!

Im picking up my new 2013 automatic venga on Saturday, do you know if when putting it in Drive do you put it in D where it says 3 next to it or do you go down to 1 or 2?

@sutsi 3 жыл бұрын

You put it into D where it says 3 next to it. The other two are lower gears for when you want to get a bit more traction going up hill/down hill. But even then I would advise just to leave it in normal Drive and let the car decide the gears. Hope this helps and congrats on your new purchase.
