Hi Auto is ok but some members like to 2drive her on a bit " so manual is better ,but fif your happy with auto leave it as it is.Auto boxes seem ok and dont seem to give much trouble.The only thing I have seen twice with auto boxes is the little seloni=oid on the side of the box sticking.Its has pipe on it as its vacuum operated to change gear/kickdown
