Any - Never driven an automatic 16 Jul 2011 (Forum)
In that time I've owned god-knows how many cars and driven loads of other cars and vans, either regularly or as one-offs. But in all that time - over 35 years - I've never driven an automatic. I know the theory and principles about how automatics work, and I know I wouldn't have a problem with it..........but I've never actually driven one. Is that some kind of record? -
