Manual or Auto gearbox anyone ?

[Surfin Spain]

Is there any school of thought over which is best / most reliable am looking to buy my first surf (3.0 G spec) plan to get it lifted and use off road in spain also towing etc

I'd definitely say go for the auto. Most on here have them, and love them to bits.

some of us have manuals!! I love mine, I dont mind changing gear and the engin breaking helps stopping in the wet, downhill with all terrains and no ABS! Its a great gear box too feels solid, but makes driving the misses car seem a bit tame all feels too lite and small!

Oh and hello and welcome

I've got a manual, but due to the weight of the vehicle I/d be tempted to go for an auto next timeround.
If you are in a hilly or mostly built up area then constantly changing gear can get tedious!!

Welcome and happy surfing

The auto is probably a little more reliable, and easier to drive. I would go for a manual everytime though, just for the control and fun. Which is why I'm on my second auto ...........

Autos are much better when off-road too!
