Although a *lot* more would probably be more appropriate for me at the moment

The manual shift is fine - I test drove one a while ago and fell in , I don't remember anything at all about the gear shift which implies it is fine!

I still see far more Astons than I do S2000s. But I like it lots.

How's the gear shift? I've only driven a paddle Vantage and heard the manual is quite a manly shift!
It's quiet heavy you have to be very positive with the gear change. Engaging reverse is a two handed effort at the moment.
