In part, but the biggest killer of manuals here in the U.K. and Europe is hybrids. It’s only the Volvo XC40 that has a manual hybrid on sale in the U.K.

No, my no means. They have a similar thing going on but take our Skoda Superb estate, same drivetrain, platform, engines, infotainment system, etc... as the VW Passat and VW Arteon, just different architecture with nice practical touches.

We use miles per hour for speed, miles for distance thought on motorways (your interstates) we also have kilometre markers as well. Fuel is bought in litres. Consumption is measured in miles per gallon (UK gallon of 4.54litres, not US gallon which is 3.78 litres).

If it’s a saloon version I’m looking for. I’d go for it’s stablemate, the Skoda Octavia vRS manual petrol 2.0TSi 245bhp and petrol hybrid 1.4TSi iV.

While Dr Gordon may be talking about flooded roads, this isn’t a flooded road (though it can be susceptible to higher periods of water flow). This is a ford which usually has a pedestrian bridge on one side or a low weight capacity bridge next to it for cars to go over, while buses and trucks ford through the well,…

We can trust you with the beer, it’s the tea we don’t trust you with. Lol.

I’ve always loved these cars.

Since the end of April, it’s been expected we’ll run out of beer. Some breweries are rationing supplies to pubs.

That’s the thing, you guys have a similar society. Your police, fire, libraries, etc... are paid through taxes, so why not healthcare.
