Hello - I'm collecting the Jazz I'm in the process of buying on Thursday. Really looking forward to it. She will be replacing my 11 year-old Saxo that I'd had from new and parked in a ditch on 1 May. Jazz is 03 plate but lovely; clean and low mileage so I'm happy. Just got to get used to driving an Auto after 40+ years of changing gears! $:-\$

Welcome Noethni. My Jazz has a rather old owner.

My Jazz will be about 3 years newer than the Saxo I wrote off but the owner is well past her prime unfortunately! (Not that I know when my prime was...

When I went for a test drive it wasn't only the left foot that was lost - my hand kept going to the gear lever. I just need to ensure I don't go into neutral approaching a corner I suppose.
I need to find out about the gears on the steering column - that will be a mystery worth knowing about. Do they come into their own when going up mountains or towing? Not that I will be towing - I sold my caravan just before I pranged the Saxo.
