| Re: On the shopping list - NEW PD280 engine with DSG I realise that, but it is a Dual-Clutch Sequential Gearbox Just some short hand ('cause whole description wouldn't fit neatly in subject box) So I just stole some of the letters DSG (although a bit misleading it does share some of the same reason d'etre as the "real" DSG)

| Re: On the shopping list - NEW PD280 engine with DSG again, very true, a Hewland box is just like a normal manual but with a sequential gear selection, nothing to do with DSG or 'semi-auto' or anything like that.... |
