So I think she should learn to drive on a manual, then if nessesary drive an auto after that, as she will then have the confidence to drive anything.
One day a few yesars ago I drove a 15 ton Fire truck in some driving lessons on back roads, on that truck. Do not have a truck licence and had never driven a truck over 4.5 ton, but went to learn to drivde a fire truck.

John, John,John, where did you hear that rubbish.:o Learning on an automatic makes getting her licence easier and then if she wishes after she has gained experience, it will be much easier for her to learn on a munual, she will pick up the knack of foot (clutch) and left arm (gear shifting)cordination a lot quicker. My youngest daughter did just that and she is now fully confident on a manual car!!!

At the moment I am playing it all by ear. Yesterday I put the seats back in it, doors on, bonnet on... I have to find where I put its battery - haven't seen it for a couple of months but it will be here somewhere.
Today I did the wheel swap but didn't spend much time on it as I was out on a mates property doing stuff on the S3 (see the What Work did you do thread).
At this point in time I am hoping to pick the trailer up on Friday so that should give me an early start on Saturday (unless I haul arse up on Friday arvo...)
I'll keep you guessing Jason so you won't be worried about me lobbing up :D
It would probably be after lunch i guess.2is maybe or laterQuote:
