Haha, I hear that, gear changing in mine is fun too! But still, an auto GTI seems wrong  :undecided:

Tell that to Mk5, Mk6 and soon to be Mk7 owners that opted for DSG.

Playstation generation.  People with withered left legs. Poor them.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Holiday cottages on the Isle of Wight for 2-10 people? PM me.

Have you driven one for any reasonable length of time? As a car for the daily slog, I much prefer my DSG Passat to either of my manual Golfs.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

As Chuff said it is easy enough to swap if needed.
