I found one I really like and its in my budget (not picking the cheapest car available)Anyways, I took it for a drive and it drives perfect except after giving it abit and once releasing the accelerate, the car jumps, as I think it changes gear?not to sure but once I let go accel and the automatic gearbox changes gear, the car jumps.I doubt this is normal, can anyone please help me.

If that means that I left foot brake a bit every now and then, then so-be-it. 1

Seems to select 1st only when either I do or I completely stop. Stays in '2nd now and doesn't do it.
