i got bored reading 3 pages of TT's signature in this thread.

however i will say TT i can't believe you are comparing super cars to a GTI.  not really a direct comparison is it.  At the end of the day, manual is better.  we have all come to that conclusion.  btw TT, you didn't answer my question from yesterday - how old are you out of interest?

Get in the real world!! for the last time the dsg box is not the be all and end all,

Really? :rolleyes:

So why does the 1000 horsepower Bugatti Veyron ONLY use a DSG?  And why have Porsche developed their own version of the DSG - aka PDK?  What about the Mitsubishi DCT? :smug: :smug: :smug: :smug:  These are all dual-clutch automated manual transmissions! :nerd:

Why does the Zonda PS not use a DSG or DSG equivalent ?

And where did that come from? :rolleyes:

Can't you answer the question ?

I actually replied to your 'original version' of your post.  Your 'edited' post completely changed the context of what you originally wrote!  :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I edited to make it a better question to ask.

Sorry, but that is NOT what the 'edit post' function is for.  Extremely bad forum manners to totally edit out the original context - w@nker! :rolleyes:


If DSG and its equivalent was that good, why wouldnt the Zonda PS use it ? I just thought as you mentioned a few supercars that use it, you may be able to tell us why there are other supercars that dont ?

Do your own research for a change!  :rolleyes:

Now now, no need to resort to name calling when you cant find an answer to my question.

Just as I suspected from you though, when a know it all doesnt have an answer, the brain doesnt know what to do.

Erm, what the fcuk are you on about?  Just because I didn't cower to your arrogant demand, you suddenly think that I don't 'know' the answer!  For the record, I DO know the answer, but narrow little minds like yours can't seem to accept 'facts', nor fundamental decency of conduct on the forum - and that is why I can't be ar$ed in wasting my time on muppets like you! :angry:

I dont know fundeamental decency, yet you just called me a wayne kerr and a muppet ?  :grin: Again, you don't know why Pagani doesnt choose retarded flappy paddles and are making a big hooha out of it. Dont worry, none of us are, we appreciate the help you do give when you do know something.

i would say 55 plus to be honest.  cause all his useful info and experience (which is helpful) is turning into a bit of an old man know it all  :laugh:

 You better edit that quick before you turn into a wayne kerr too  :grin:

it does seem if you disagree with TT you are a tosspot.  as informative as he is some of his statements are utter sh1te.  plus i've noticed he never replies to comments when he's in the wrong.  but then again, he's probably got nowt else to do after pottering around the garden and walking the dog so then he comes on here for hours on end and talks at people instead of with them.  :rolleyes:
