Im really enjoying it. Many members of my family all seem to have autos and i've previously had an A Class with the semi-automatic and i felt it was time to own my own.

Fell in love with the cooper 4 years ago but I had one of those weird moments and brought an Alfa 147 instead.

Im currently making up for lost time and enjoying every minute. I have found it very easy to get on with the cvt. I think its a very smooth unit and i find it responds well to varying degrees of pressure on the pedal to get a nice smooth ride whllst in traffic. Sports mode is great for making quick progress away from lights, It feels and sounds like a different car when i move the gearshift over to the right.

Havn't had a chance for a long drive using the manual mode and too be honest its not why i brought an automatic but having said that its great to have the option.

Should be taking her in for a service soon and as she's covered by the TLC package shouldnt cost me a penny either. Brought her from a main dealer as part of the cherished scheme. Just 4 years old with 17000 miles on the clock. Appears to have been well looked after and so hope to keep her for a number of years..
