Hi greencav, welcome to the forum  :y

The autoboxes on the V6's are generally thought to be excellent, whereas the manuals are generally thought to be a bit crap

Hope this helps  :)

Hi and welcome to the forum.

V6 autos are great, really suits the character of the car. Manuals are of course a bit quicker and more economical, but I personally wouldn't pass up an otherwise good car at the right price just because of what transmission it has.

Welcome. Mine is auto and can't fault it to be honest. I've owned it for a long time though so have had no 'inherited' issues.
