    Anyway, I actually got a bit jealous of the manual when watching this one:

    Hehe yeah - I've cruised every good twisty road in Vic within a 400km radius of my house

    Even did the Great Alpine Rd loop in a day (about 9 hours 30, despite Google Maps claiming it would take 12 hours)

    DSG for a couple of reasons.

    1. Resale. Car is a lease so I've got to maximise the return when I sell it in a few years (it will be replaced with another VW)

    2. Drove both the manual and the DSG. Liked both, and if the DSG had been as bad as some journo's have stated, I would have had the manual and to hell with resale. DSG changes smoothly, quickly, and in the 'D' mode is extremely economical. I tend to use more revs than I need in manuals, so the DSG is saving me money!
