@gamerzone3d Sorry about that. The videos are streamed live from the launch in Spain over a 3G connection to get them up as quick as possible so unfortunately the quality had to be low to make it work.

I'm disappointed with what you think of the DCT gearbox. I wanted that exact car, the 2litre diesel with DCT! Is it really that bad? I have heard from others that it's OK on the petrol engines due to the wider rev range. With my current manual gearbox all the power is between 2000 and 3500 RPM, so it must be difficult to get a DCT to "work". Does it hunt for the gears and keep changing up and down? Even the dealership said to get a manual diesel instead of DCT!
