I have one of these as a courtesy car at the moment.

What a POS. Every time the gearbox shifts a gear the car abruptly slows 10mph and I almost nut the effing steering wheel.

How on earth does anything so abysmal get offered for general sale. :huh:

    Drove a brand new 6 speed eco-something-tronic-something diesel Astra recently. The manual ones are just as much a pile of...nonsense.

    Glad it's not just me! I had a new 1.4 manual corsa and it was the worst car I had ever driven. Inflicted upon me by insurance comp. I thought the steering wheel wasn't connected to the front wheels. I bet the people driving behind me were !!!!ing themselves laughing thinking I had spent 15k on that POS.
