good to watch.

Noticed this sounds quite different in character to my DSG, missing the upshift raasp noise, and noticed also the revs "descend" between up shifts rather than instantly flick to a particular rpm, in DSG guise...

handbags indeed... :lol:

well all my cars have been manual til now, and swore id never get an auto, but having sceptically agreed to test drive a DSG, I became instantly smitten, depsite owning a 2 seater sports car before.

I see this semi auto box as something special and enjoy the fact that when I've dont fancy manual etc can sit back and relax in D mode.

Anyway, really you know your'e just jealous of the 0.2 second saving lol. (we won't account for all those fancy mods).
