I think we have reached the old mv6/sport v 'the rest' is down to personal preference...

Now auto v manual


/me runs

You had better run, you slushbox'n non driver involvement pack driver you...

Back on subject f13 - That sounds like a good deal, with very good trade in price. Cause your a taxi i would seriously consider LPG, costs about £600 to DIY the 4 pots.

Depends if you need the back seats down to carry large loads of not.

You forget....

2 MV6's here now, 1 auto, 1 manual  :D

tbh would pick the auto for a taxi

My daily drive is the auto
hers is the manual

general 'not trying' driving, the auto outperforms the manual, except on economy.
Now whack the auto in 2nd and keep it there in the lanes, wayhay, fun time!

Discovered Migs many years ago as a cabbie when granadas got too old to plate. Given the low miles of the "sport" i'd go for it.
     Regarding the auto/manual issue i'm a proper gearbox bloke through & through but with all the stop start town driving in a cab i'd have a slush box every time. :y
