Question

Has anyone come across instructors who use automatics for driving lessons ?

The wife want's to learn (finally!) but prefers to learn solely on an automatic, which suits me as this means she'll never get her paws on any future Scoob!

Do you want to buy an automatic scooby wagon for her. Oh... And the future Impreza's (11b) are all automatics (the ones that are getting tested right now) so the the future statment is a bit hopeful.

Thanks AJ, but I phoned them up and no bugger does auto's in Edinburgh. Can't say I blame them, there's not much call for auto-only licenses.
