Seems a pretty good gearbox to me and to be honest the auto changing is that good, I couldnt see myself wanting to use the paddles that much at all. Had a quick go with them earlier today and it reminded me of playing a computer game.

Bit a palaver though when coming to a stop and getting out at the end of a journey:

Put stick in neutral
Press P button
Apply handbrake
Press Start/Stop button once
Press Start/Stop button again

Now you can get out of the car. Seems a lot more fuss than my manual. Something you'd get used to though.......
You don't need to put it in neutral before you press P. Also if you don't press the Start/Stop the second time then the auxiliaries go off when you lock the door.

Paddles were the main thing I missed not having the sport auto on the F11.
