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.
