Well after test driving a T3 geartronic I can absolutely see why they got rid - totally didn't suite the engine, too much lag from the gearbox AND turbo made it really difficult to predict consistently. I'm sure a manual would suite the T3 (and T2) well as there was plenty of torque for pulling away. If anyone else is considering a T3 auto I would certainly suggest trying before you buy!
It's a shame diesels have taken a knock on resale as I'm sure the D3 would have been fine assuming it has similar response to my current VAG 2.0 150 tdi
