Auto or Manual
beast5680:
well i,ve had both, currently have an auto 300tdi as the sunday best car i like autos and think they are much underated but saying that i wouldnt have another diesel one as they are too sluggish for my liking especially if your trying to get out of junctions on to busy roads :shock:
i find running costs are higher with regard to fuel compared with a manual.
There are a hell of a lot of diesel autos available at the mo as they are grey imports from japan, usually well specced as well

The only time you should have an auto is with a V8 rangie :o the auto disco's are too slow, when going down a motorway i had an auto 300TDi disco following me in my manual 300TDi and i had to keep slowing down so he could catch up, and that was all within speed limits!
petergalileo:
I wish mine was an auto :(

Manual 8) more fun i reckon

hmmmm...... still unsure, the way i drive, fuel probably wont be much different :? i like the idea of ease of an auto, this will be my day to day vehicle as well as laning toy (so long as bits dont fall of as much as the 90) and i dont do that much travel, but unsure about not having the control off road, but then again, i am sure the auto box would better select than i would :roll:
