Welcome, as for the DSG, don’t think it matters what everyone thinks or tells you, it’s all down to personal preference. If you’re used to manual you know what it’s like to drive, but until you drive a DSG???????????? You will either love it or hate it and go from there.  :driver:

Hi and welcome.

As above, you need to try out both before you make your decision.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
