Transverse north star front wheel drive, I wonder how long an auto box option would last in that?

the autobox is good for 150,000 miles plus,16 mpg on gas (do not believe the bo**ox on mpg that sellers claim) 20 mpg on a run +tailwind. 0-60 mph sub 7 seconds.unfortunately the only thing my sts can outcorner is my p38 ;D. excellent motorway cruiser tho. :y

I just know that if I bought it, I'd come outside the next morning and find a puddle of oil the size of lake Ontario underneath it. Then I'd be forced to sell it the very next day for £150. :'( :'(

It's sure to be a money pit. :-[

clever piece of kit, when cruising it cuts 4 cylinders to save fuel, then restarts them and cuts the other 4 cylinders, to even out the heat cycle,driven normally 30 is easily achievable,now becoming very popular as a transplant motor :y
