heres a question.
my mother wants a new car, she can only drive automatics due to her licence so manuals are out of the question.
Is it legal for her to drive a DSG car then? it is an automatic afterall, just with a manual option

that was my thoughts. I said it should be fine, as it only has 2 pedals. Just not sure about the paddle option complicating matters!

The congestion charge says the car is registered as a "GOLF GTI AUTO" so it should be legal for her to drive.

.
Both insurance policy and DVLA car registration/ownership documents categorise DSG as "Automatic" too. The fact that you can manually override and operate the gearbox seems to be something which those clever British bureaucrats simply haven't grasped yet.. Duh!
Just go ahead if she needs 'auto' and perhaps as a bonus teach her how to flap her paddles (Ooops! That doesn't sound quite right.. Sorry!
)
