I would love to own a mk5 gti dsg..  When I test drive customer cars with dsg I tend to take twice as long enjoying the easy lazy ride.

Manual for me & glad i did. Too many people having problems with the ''mechatronics unit'' on the DSG boxes now & it's not a cheap fix. :sad:

There's nothing worse sitting in a long and slow traffic jam in and out of a bloody gear all the time manually. Lazy I know but having an auotmatic gear box is small bonus in this situation  :wink:
