It's auto as auto is with torque converter and all so unless it has a proper box like the modern flappy cars then it's got to be manual for me I'm afraid.........no matter how bad.
Suggest you try an Aero with a 6-speed ZF auto box when you next have the chance. I think that'll put a smile on your face and change your perspective on the ZF. And while you're there, try using the sequential mode too... satisfaction guaranteed!

(It's not your ordinary auto box...)
