long motorway journeys make no difference between auto and manual because you'd just stay in top gear anyway. nice car anyway mate will be a relaxing drive with it being auto.

Damn right unfortunately, my mum was looking at one. So glad I managed to switch her to a megane, the 1.6 was slooooooow when I drove one the 1.8 should make it passable but auto :dead:.

If you wanted a motorway car, why did you pick an automatic rather than a diesel? You dont change gear on the motorway anyway?

Car looks nice though fella.

I disagree - but he's not gonna like what I say. A manual would be better for motorways as the top gear is longer and you'd get better fuel economy. Autos for stop-start town driving every time.

If your doing motorway miles you shoulda got the 1.9 CDTi 150. Get it Green Boxed to 200 brake/320lbsft torque. Plus 55mpg. Mine shifts and it hasnt been boxed yet.
 
i kno but i cant say no lol.

mrs didnt want a deisel and this will be more her car then mine so ..........
 
lol, just picked up this thread following your MPG thread and after my holiday from CS.

Nice looking. What I cant get my head around fella is. You had a Megane, sold it for the clio, got an old Vectra, then choped that in for this Astra. Wouldnt it have been more sensible just to have kept the Megane rather than keep handing back cars on finance? Same sort of car etc?!?

Auto.... pmsl. There is half the issue with your mpg. What does the manual say its mpg should be? I think these tell you what your mpg is on the trip computer.

edit: what's your birds mini like? Any pics?
