forester t s-edition e4at auto with sports shift

[Turkish125]

Hi looking at purchasing forester t s-edition with e4at auto box with sports shift and and steering wheel changer is this any good ideally I would have a manual box but they are fetching way to much money.

Are these boxes the next best thing to a manual had bad experience with a semi auto box on a bmw which went pop!!

cheers

they are good but I still like a manual too ... best bet is test drive a couple.
