Anybody got the petrol Automatic version yet ?? or change to manual ?

[kml]

Just wondering whether anyone got the petrol 120hp with the automatic gearbox. Just wanted to hear some comments on how the auto drives.
I hear and read that it is a bit jerky at lower speed + High speed runs are also a bit on the loud/noisy side as it is only a 4 speed automatic.

The dealer did call me a week or so back and I wanted a test drive but was not welcome as the car they had had to be delivered to the customer. Still waiting and also thinking whether I should switch to the Thp manual version.

Only the petrol versions are offered in my market here .. the 120hp auto and the THp manual.

any advise

hi,
itz been a while and I finally got to test drive the auto version (120 hp petrol). The drive in the auto was smooth and acceleration was good as the car moves quickly. Kickdown was a bit jerky. The steering feels a bit light / lifeless .. or is this with all models ??
Still undecided as much time has lapsed and have been looking at the Nissan juke (which is also nice / same price range) and other family members request more than 2 doors now. The ds4 looks another year away.

I have a Auto C3. I find its still a bit sluggish on hills but its no even run in yet so I need to give it chance. Over taking wise its quite nippy like considering my last 2 cars were a 05 C3 Exclusive 1.6i 16v Exclusive SensoDrive and a 08 C2 1.6i 16v VTR SensoDrive.

But yeah its way better than the 58 Reg C3 1.6i 16v 110BHP Auto my bro had.
