i'd prefer the manual over auto any day.
apart from the mpg and the lesser towing weights... you just got more driving control with a manual box |

didnt realise that the 4.2 was available in the y61, this must be an early one.
pretty sure auto doesnt effect tow weight on trols, they are all plated at 3500 kg trailer gross weight. mpg , dunno, but round 20-22 is about average on the 3.0 zd tdi.
