As mentioned in another thread Im about to order a 2.0 TDI Sport 170 A3 and now that Im leaning away from the Quattro version (subject to test drive) I could go for the Tiptronic option.
I have test driven a vehicle with DSG and it was fun, especially playing formula one. Doing mainly urban and semi- urban driving it would also make boringly good sense. The thing is I wonder if the novelty would wear off and Id end up just shoving it into auto most of the time and never using the features. Even more so because over the years as a manual shift driver Id have to think about operating the Tiptronic features.
Is the Tiptronic more than just an auto box and if so would I adapt and use the features 'automatically' ?
Thanks.
