    Default Hard Decision

    Well should I buy a VL Calais Automatic or a 5 Speed Manual? Im currently on my L's and I get my P's in about 3 months time, haven't done much hours either. Can you name some Pros and Cons with both transmission types?

    Cheers;
    Emre.

    My advice would be to get some manual driving practice before driving a manual vl, but 5 speed manual vl's are getting rarer and in more demand, so if you have a choice go the manual!

    5 speeds arent rare every 3rd vl you see for sale is manual and had the ass floged out of it.
