Driving lessons in a manual or automatic?

In Britain and mainland Europe, manual cars are the most popular and in North America its the other way round and predominately auto. Automatics are way easier to drive as you only need one foot,the right.The downside is they use more fuel than a manual and tend to be more expensive to buy.The other big problem with automatics is that you are not allowed to drive a manual in this country if you pass your test in an auto.Driving a manual in my opinion is more fun and unless your driving is bordering on special needs,a good driving instructor will be able to get you through your test in a manual.Amba Driving School
