Manual V Automatic -closed, please see link in last post

Very rare, if not unheard of for a wet clutch failure in a proper torque converter auto. There are threads of this debate already being discussed in the Towcar section that might be of interest.

 ..... Which one should I go for and why

personal choice .... you need a drive of each as they drive differently. My choice is the same as dave's above ie a torque converter type auto

Hi folks.  This topic should really be in the Towing and Towcar section, and there is also a thread there on Automatics v Manual.  I will close this thread and refer you to this one HERE to avoid duplication.

Regards

David
