I bought a new one once (silly me) and it went through three auto boxes and one transfer box on warranty. But it ws a VERY bad car (one of those Friday afternoon ones) and may not have been typical. Auto box on my TD5 has done 100 000 miles and no prblems (yet...)

I must admit the box on my old girl doesnt like to be rushed I can see I will have to test drive one and then decide are there any tell tale signs of impending dooooom and major ££££££££££ I should be aware of CHEERS.
