RE: Manual Gearbox

hoping the stop/start lower emissions is on the 2012 or 2013 auto diesel. at present only the X3 diesel has auto stop/start low emissions system

RE: Manual Gearbox

I have gone for the SD4 manual also for mpg and co2 reasons. Test drove one only for a short time at local dealer, the box was very smooth and only a short distance between gears.
Looking forward to a hopeful delivery in November but is subject to the Xenon fiasco????

RE: Manual Gearbox

Having driven both manual and auto I have to say both are good. If CO2/MPG are a priority then manual wins but not by much.

RE: Manual Gearbox

Also went for manual for CO2, mpg & company tax (mainly this) reasons.
