drome me mams hse today, first time I've ever drove an auto I was supprised at how quickly the thing picks up and speed.

And for once I had air con, electric Windows, cruse control and keyless entry.

I was quite impressed.

From what I read in the LRO and LRM you can get a adaption for a hard clutch.

I love auto boxes, got two cars with automatic transmission.
Unfortunately the work Van is a manual, wonder if I can put an expense claim in for the extra effort

Hmmm, it would only be your 'left' arm - that may raise a few eyebrows amongst psychologists..................

+2 both SWMBO and I prefer auto's - I'll never have a manual - way too difficult for me with a disability.

Got to agree, auto everytime for me. In fact the last manual I owned was a Ford Cortina Mk2 back in the mid 70's and I have owned literally dozens of cars since then. My Freelander really suits it's auto box and makes it effortless to drive.
