Hi peeps,

 

which one of the above??, i suppose its Personal preference. My only worry is the twin turbo clashing with the Auto box....:badidea:

 

The last thing i want is cruising down the motorway at 60 & fancy a gearchange, drop my right foot & loose the back end!!??

 

I've seen a Auto TT which i'm hoping to purchase.....

 

Any advice apreciated, cheers

Yeah, except i am SOOOOO lazy i havn't washed her ina month or so. I think i MUST on my next day off :D

 

The plus side to an auto is i think they are ever so slightly faster, plus the ecu knows the optimum place to change gear so as to keep you going at full strength when you need it :D

Auto fine, i have one and love being in traffic knowing i dont have a clutch.

Still great fun but IMHO if your looking for chucking a car round country roads auto is not for you. Great for straight line but i take is very carfully round corners incase it changes down when im not expecting it to
