Fingers crossed then!!! ARGH.....you'll be fine. :lol:

I will agree with the auto slowing your driving style down. I definitely drive more sedately...hence my high emissions I suppose. Driving Campbell's manual ...totally different. More aggressive and much faster...a drivers car. In truth I like both for different reasons.

Mine was doing 75 down the golden valley bypass this morning. Certianly didn't feel like it. 8-)

But I have no idea what my MPG is. Never bothered to measure it. All I do know is that on a good motorway cruise it is very good.

I did want a manual but there were never any around....until, of course, I bought mine! Then several appeared!

I do boot it now and again, only to clear it out really as I know that they get clogged up if grannied everywhere.

Good luck with the MOT Campbell.

Yes and that's what I like about an auto :D

Mind you, the HP20 has a sport button and it has to be tested every now and again to ensure it stilk works..

Press it and hold on to your hat!

And Campbell, good luck with the MOT, not that you'll need it I'm sure...

I'm expecting a bill ...

however, it won't fail on lights, brakes, seatbelts or tyres on my watch!


I only worry about the intermittent abs fault, and the emissions - You can do nothing about anything else.
