hi mate your traction button should you have the red light on or leave it off , I've just bought a meriva and don't know if im suppose to have it on or off I've never had a car with traction control on it .cheers
@johnny petch - most definitely this car takes some getting used to, and you think this car has a lot of buttons, yes, yes it does, and the top flight model (the SE) has a few more :) - probably worked this out now, but the Parking Brake can be operated in two ways. 1) Drive Off and after it 'brakes traction' is will auto release. or 2) Hold the Foot Brake and release the (press) parking brake. -I also believe they upgraded the class of this vehicle from an MPV to a Compact MPV
Ok you have your hand brake on, get your bite and it will go as soon as you press accelerator pedal. it will automatically release the brake so you dont roll back.....found this out the hard way and yes i have 1 nice comfortable car lots of space even with the seat raised my head still does not touch the roof!!!
You think that but the thing is this car is very very popular with Young Families with kids here in euorpe.They are really practical and kids have more than enough place and its cheaper to run plus Taxes are arround 400euro.So win win for us because we live in an area where Emission law are really strict ( Antwerpen ).I have owned alot of GT cars but now i cant because we need child friendly car right now.I already have appointment i am going to buy this car for our needs.If you have any alternative in mind let me know.
my 2011 has no go in first or second gear compare to other other cars driven but has lots of power and can quickly get upto speed 60/70/80 no problem but wants more
I agree, far too many unnesseccary buttons/gadgets on cars these days. All for making money when things go wrong. Plus people spend more time with eyes off of the road fiddling/looking for the buttons to play with..🤪🤪
I have the 2012 Vauxhall Minerva 1.7 diesel . Nice Car, Great to Drive , but only thing is , its very Greedy for Diesel . This i can't Understand , I Also have an Audi A4 2007 2.0 Diesel and i get more Milage to the Gallon on this Sports Model than the Vauxhall Minerva 1.7 Diesel , So Whats Happening Guy , it a Smaller car and very Greedy on Juice
How do get the phone to work or is this optional
