gt/e paul Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 They do come up now and again, Unfortunately not many people are fans of the auto hence they get converted to manual. I personally love them and have a gte auto and a cavalier sportshatch in auto . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious, what makes you a fan of the auto(s)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titson Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 The auto I had was superb, never missed a beat and the change was exceptionally smooth. One of the cars I shouldn’t have sold! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious, what makes you a fan of the auto(s)? Its one of those things that are marmite I suppose. It's a case of personal preference. I've other cars that are manual, and also had mk1 cavaliers that are speed and 2.0 and 2.8 mantas with 5 speed manual boxes. so when I take the auto out I enjoy it. It's one of the most smoothly changing autos I've driven. Also as the case with the manta I have it was the first auto I drove even before I owned it myself. The sportshatch, well that was unplanned it just happened to be auto. No plans to Convert them myself. Edited January 1, 2018 by gt/e paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
