brianthedog   10 #15 Posted April 3, 2009 Unless your disabled or have learning difficulties, there is no excuse to have an automatic car, or just an automatic license. Very lazy if you ask me.  Not in the slightest. I like automatic cars. Wouldn't buy one if I was buying a 'fun' car, but for a town car run-around type motor I'd definitely look at one. As for only having an automatic license, I'm inclined to agree if they learnt to drive in the UK - but they could be after the car for a Yank, and a lot of them just can't drive a proper car.

When converting their license to a UK one they then would get issued an auto only license. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
eezi   10 #19 Posted April 3, 2009 hi!!! I think the best way to find automatics is using hispacar.com pages. I used this one when I bought my stationwagon.  Chris. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
pem123   10 #20 Posted April 3, 2009 Unless you are disabled or have learning difficulties, there is no excuse to have an automatic car, or just an automatic license. Very lazy if you ask me.  Bit judgemental. There are many valid reasons why a person may require an automatic. Personally (although I have a maunal licence and currently drive a manual) I love autos, although I would only have one with a big lazy 5+ cylinder engine, I just think it sounds and feels wrong in a 4cyl or less.  Regarding the quote by the chap who works for Evans Halshaw... I have been to the one on Penistone road and also spoken to another branch by phone and I have to say that they aren't a company i'll ever be doing business with Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Do you own aa automatic washing machine? People have very different opinions and levels of interest in driving. You shouldn't assume that everyone views it as you do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
