As soon as you know, fill your profile in with the year, model (e.g. Tekna), engine (e.g. 1.3) and gearbox(automatic) details - if you need a question answering it'll help enormously.
As you see I’ve used mine as an example

Not sure where to put that information, tried putting it in the model section but only 4 options in the drop down menu. Have put it in interests to see if it pops up.

Asked a techno wiz and found out you put it in the signature area.

Wow, I was under the impression that the 1.3 (160) was only available as an auto - great news for anyone who wants a manual !!

Think the auto DCT is only available with the 160 Bhp petrol or 1.5 diesel.

It was initially available with either transmission (here's the November 2019 brochure), but now they're on a severely reduced range I think they've put the 160 on auto only.

Picked up the car today. Very impressed with how simple it was to connect my phone and tune/save my favourite radio stations. Been through the settings menu having a play with all the options. Looking forward to a longer drive to familiarise with the controls and how the car drives/acts etc.
Think I’m a Nissan convert 😁
