  • Automatic or Manual 15 May 2009 (Forum)
    Hi there, I'm looking to buy a used car, preferably a reliable brand like a Honda or a Toyota but I can't decide whether I should go automatic or not. I've been driving a manual since passing my driving test a few years ago, but I've been thinking of getting an automatic after test driving a few in the past. I don't drive that much, maybe once a week, it will be mainly my wife who will be driving back and forth to work (about 3-4 miles only) every day.

  • Audi A3 Thoughts 12 Nov 2004 (Forum)
    I haven't driven a Sport for comparison, and I'm not flavour of the month at the dealers since I mentioned Drive the Deal! Will I find the Sport spine jarring after the SE and being used to my comfy merc? My other thought was the Saab 9-3, really enjoyed driving the car which has a good 1.9 diesel and the best seats ever, superb interior too and a great looking car.
