Just in case you missed my reply to your other turbo thread............


Is you turbo definitely knackered, what are the symptoms?

just take a look through the offroad section and you will see for yourself how good the auto's are.
I organised a run to the sun in september and we had a off road day and invited a local 4x4 club and they all laughed when they saw the surfs coming down the track and at the end of the day a few of them came up to us and said how surprised they were at where people were taking their surfs and how well they performed.It's all down to personal preferance but i found the surf was a hell of a lot better on the course we were at

[joker??]

people i know used to swear by manuals for offroading ie hunting etc not play
they drove my trooper (auto)now they dont want manuals, one even bought my trooper

some of the trucks that went on the surf run were bog standard ,mine even had slicks lol

a bit of a way off yet but next summer i will be doing another RTTS so if you fancy a w/end down here camping/caravan and a days off roading then keep an eye out in the off road section after xmas when i will start to organise it.All family and dogs welcome at the campsite and offroading

I don't know about offroad, but the Icelandic swear by autos for driving through the snow. They do hunt, but you can stick 'em in a particular gear if you want to control a descent or whatever, same as a manual.

Autos are as good as manuals, they're just more boring.
