  1. The tiptronic was only available on the facelift vvti. The difference as I believe it to be is that the tiptronic has a second gate that you can shift into that allows you to shift up and down (also has buttons on the steering wheel) so more of a manual feeling. Where as the manual mode only lets the gearbox to stay in 1st with L selected , 1st and 2nd with 2 selected and 1st , 2nd and 3rd with D selected. (I might be wrong as I am recalling from memory) but is still controlled by the auto ecu where as the tiptronic in M allows the driver to shift. Sure someone more knowledgeable of the tiptronic will be able to confirm.
  2. Hey bud. I was in your same position. I have now owned my auto n/a for about a month and I am not disappointed. Like it has been said there will always be pros and cons to both sides. You certainly aren't disconnected from the car because you cant change gear. You do have a lot of involvement in what the box can do in regards to overdrive and the manual mode. Having driven modern autos the A340E stands well above them the kick down really is responsive. But everyone has a preference but certainly give the auto a test drive I don't think you will be disappointed
  3. Yeah. Impressed that you can book in to use the facility.
  4. Yeah thought that there might have been more than the one detailing bay. Although wouldn't mind that lighting setup in my garage

  13. Well today I drove home my Supra, the entire hour and a half drive I sat there with a Cheshire cat sized grin pinching myself "yes this your Supra" And to make it even better just after I got onto the M54, I look in the side mirror to see another Supra, the big smiles and waves exchanged as they passed. Here are the pics the only thing bad is the interior but I plan to sort that out. Thanks for looking Dom

  20. Thank you. Currently a first gen 2005 Yaris. Looking at getting either a manual N/A or an aerotop. I know that the reality may well be an auto, given my budget
