Realistically it will prob end up being a auto unless a manual pops up,id just like a few of you guys with autos who do a spot of drifting to tell me that they are good for it as I've only had manual rear wheel drives  :)

I went to auto's 7 years ago and wouldn't go back to a manual.  I've found my 2.5v6 an absolutely stonking motor - smooth, plenty of grunt when you need it, very comfortable and average 33+ on a long motorway run. You need a good service history, the more comprehensive the better, and the cam belt should have been changed at 80K and then every 40K.

..... Do I get manual/auto 2.5,2.6,3.0 or 3.2 decisions  :-\

That bit's easy ........ 3.2 auto! Why have more pedals than feet?  ;) ;) ;) ;)
Because a manual will always be in the right gear, whether changing up or down the 'box ::)

Ideally an engine should have more litres than the car has doors, but failing that it should definitely have more cylinders than seats :P

So I'm guessing that you're not a fan of the Citroen CV6 then   ::)      ::)
