I'm pretty happy with the DSG gearbox.  Never actually test drove a GTI with DSG so it was a bit of a gamble.  Driven Autos plenty of times in the US etc and they are usually dull.   I love the way you can hold the gear when using paddles though, pretty much like a manual without clutch.

Hybrid Phil?  You mean the rims?  That's the ollieb7 connection.
