Off topic DSG madness - no changed, cost to post an alientech box to S Wales

[Raffe]

A few years back,quite a few now I did hear dsg reference from a group of Audi/vw techs as standing for disaster struck gearbox and doesn't select gearsbox   

I'm a bit old school but it's just not 'proper' fun unless your stirring the gear box yourself.

Regardless of other peoples opinions I still don't and won't believe a true petrol head would choose an auto over a manual

If you drove a DSG for a week i bet my last pound you wouldn't go back to a manual

A week?
2 hours was enough to drive me round the bend and have me begging for a manual.

To each their own.

I have ad DSG courtesy cars, would have it in a diesel work horse, but not in a 'fun' car I want to drive.

However you dress it up is still just an auto box

I would have to agree I've driven a few DSG cars and while I would choose DSG on an underpowered diesel (say 1.6 TDI) for sitting in traffic on the motorway, anything remotely sporty and I would prefer manual. That said, a mapped DSG Golf R would be an absolute beast, being able to hit silly figures every run.

I don't agree with this comment one bit, some peeps have to drive autos/dsg for a reason...they might have the choice..
