I've driven both manual and auto and have chosen the auto. I know I'm in the minority.
Why did I go for auto?
<ul>[*]My last three cars have been auto.[*]Like the idea of paddles when I want to give it a thrash and cruise in D when I don't.[*]I doa lot of commuting driving[*]Found you have to make plenty of changes with the manual which became tiresome when I drove it for 2 hours in France. [*]The speed of gear change is surprisingly good given it's not a DSG box.[*]Added bonus of lower CO2 and better MPG, not normally the case with auto's.[*]I like the easy life.
