Hey Hitman - think you might be opening ANOTHER can of worms here!!!

M-DCT is fantastic with fractionally quicker change than a skilled manual box.

Some people obviously prefer the direct involvement of a manual box - remember though that with the flappy paddles on the DCT you can override the auto programme for some "manual" stimulation if you fancy it!

You MUST really try and get a test drive with the DCT too if you can. Then your mind will be made up with a hands-on direct comparison rather than the power of persuasion from the forum!
