    Just had a golf and the dsg was alright, no real complaint at all.. Well are a few i guess no auto is perfect..

    Now i got a cvt which i was worried about a bit, I dunno why?.. it’s awesome, so smooth, no clunking like with the dsg as sometimes it would as it thinks you want up but you want / need to change down and it don’t have a 3rd clutch.

    Plus it would alway change up way to early to keep revs ultra low but as we move towards Zero emissions even hybrid cars will need an autobox of some sort to blend the 2 engines together.

    I cannot drive a manual anymore and that i do miss but The honda i got has paddles as well and it’s a beast of a car when i use them. 1.5l 182bhp vtec cvt, It’s like driving two cars. Really am liking it alot. thinking though I’m gonna get caught out speeding it’s that good. It’s Like a go cart in sport mode without the paddles and a race car using them..
