Might have to sell Sid!

As the title says, i might have to give up Sid after only a couple of months

really dont want to but iv got a bad knee and driving a manual is making it flare up again. I have still to decide what im going to do and how much i would be asking. Didnt think i would have any trouble but hey ho what can i do?! what are the steptronic boxes like, not knocking our beloved MG but never imagined them to be very responsive. why do things never go my way....

Can sympathise with you, few years ago did my back in, hurt so much I tried to skip as many gear changes as I could.

There are quite a lot of steptronics for sale, best go for a test drive and see what you think.

Best of luck if you do sell Sid.

With the steptronic it you can knock it up & down the gears manually anyway (suppose most modern autos will let you do that though?)

There was a guy on here with a late model a week or so ago, selling an 06 plate for about ?3K. Looked a decent car.

Be carefull when buying a steptronic ZS. Gearbox's are prone to problems.
