I do enjoy modern automatics, and decades of driving Mercedes who produce some of the best auto's has kind of conditioned me. Sue wants to drive the Morgan more and she hates manuals, well to be honest hates clutches and the fly off handbrake balancing on a hill for a trad, she is not particularly comfortable with as she is quite petit and it becomes a bit of a stretch for her. I also want to share more of the driving with her especially if we go touring, so it reduces the pressures on me. I can put my feet up from time to time and enjoy the ride.
I appreciate you lose some control with an auto, hence why wanting a Plus Four with traction control, which ,would suit Sue but as always life is a compromise.
Its strange, how different characteristics create different sense of safety, when I jumped straight out of the Roadster into a Plus Four demonstrator, I felt safer in the trad because the interior was quite snug. cocooning and comforting compared to the extra space of the CX interior, but I suppose its something you get used to.
I know this may seem a silly question but how does a clutchless manual work in a Morgan?
