@mott1s Not really mate, if you don't drive it like a nonce and still lift off when you shift

[WatchWord2000]

It's just another name for a tiptronic gearbox.

What the fuck is a MX5 Power Shift? It's not a power shift, moron.

[domda64]

The MX5 automatic is known in the UK as an MX5 powershift.

Perhaps your time would be better spent researching language as opposed to other things.

Thanks for playing

"

A power shift transmission (3) for motor vehicles in which instead of a hydrodynamic torque converter a controlled or regulated multiple disc clutch serves to assist starting. The loading of clutch is minimized by a fitted catch which prevents the motor vehicle from rolling in the opposite direction to the direction of travel intended by the gear selection."

COntinued.. "Catch can take the form of a mechanical catch, as sprag unit, or the form of an electronically adjusted catch which acts on one and/or more transmission brakes and/or clutches and/or into the service brake of the vehicle. "
