RE: Manual vs Auto - resale? 
			 
			
				Yes, but I was prepared to buy a manual if my wife really preferred it. I simply wanted her to give the auto a proper chance before making up her mind. The auto 9 speeder is impressive. However, I think had we gone manual at £1700 less, & that was reflected at resale time, then I'd have been fine with that too. Either is fine, just did not want to make a regrettable decision. Regarding colour, another dilemma in another thread I've started!!!

				The 9 speed auto is very good and the power is always there for me when needed.
