A race circuit perhaps with paddle shift, but that's not automatic is it.
This octogenarian has no difficulty getting in and out of the cab or onto his hands and knees to do the servicing or finding the gear stick.

I understand where you are coming from, I've had automatics for some 40 odd years now, and they have come a long way from the basic 3/4 speed Borg Warner gearboxes of yore. My Aunty in the 60's/70's had Singer, BL cars with the 3 speed auto...and I hated driving them, they were dreadful.

But that's not the case today., as they say each to their own..........
