Nice my mate has wicked one just make sure you get one from an owners club as they know what they're talking about.

Mostly tiptronic or auto - manuals are rare.

IMO anything other than a manual is shit

I understand this works well, as you can hold on with both hands to the stering wheel but i'd hate an auto anything for road use.
