I'm going to have to beg an instruction drive if my dealer doesn't offer one. When I had my test drive the car was a DSG, and that was what put the idea in my mind. But the idea didn't crystallise until a bit later, so I didn't ask anything at all about the DSG during the test drive, or enquire what it could do.
I remember I accidentally pushed the stick to the left while we were stationary, and the salesman said, no, you just put it in manual. Huh? I didn't know automatics could go into manual. No more was said about it, and I didn't notice paddles or anything like that.
So I think I'm going to need a lesson.
