Thanks everyone for the really helpful advice. I guess I just need to really confirm my priorities. |

Pray that you get 2/3 of FA extra when you eventually sell it!

Wigbo60, if you are asking then it's better to have automatic |

I went from manual TD4 (2007) in March this year to an automatic SD4 (2014), initially I was a bit unsure of the auto & if I really liked it, there were days I thought mmm I think I made a mistake & should have bought a manual.

"if I hold the creep on the brake I think that something must be wearing out but thats probably just me, a bit like riding the clutch on a gradient to hold the car which must be wearing the clutch drive plate."
