2019 V60 Manual Gearbox

[neilgorin]

I had a v60 D4 Inscription manual 19 plate, just to prove the point that they're not all low spec.

I found the gearbox very smooth and not at all notchy. I do a lot of miles and when I changed it last year at 4 years old it had done 105k, box felt exactly as new.

Replaced it with a mild hybrid v60 with the dual clutch auto, now that is a good gearbox on the move but terrible from rest if you need to get away quickly - I'm also rather wary as to it's long term reliability because it's already behaving rather strangely in reverse some days.

I'd go back to a manual tomorrow if they were still made.
