Ah, but that then puts your gearbox into S which makes smooth progress difficult
Others might prefer it, but for general driving I like exhaust open but box in D

I always drive it in manual!

Same here. Manual mode is really great. Probably even nicer for as your downshits and up shifts are even louder than the ones I get. My fuel economy in an RS would be shocking. Its shocking enough in an S.

The piddly fuel tank doesn't help.

I'm with G though, drive in D with exhaust open. Driving in sport everywhere would result in giving child whiplash!

I'm still experimenting at the moment but when playing on my favourite roads I'm in manual. For general pottering round town I'm in drive, but want the exhaust open.
On a motorway I'll probably go with S mode.

On the motorway in S, you'll be in 4th or 5th gear
I tend to use D on the motorway and general driving (school runs, shopping etc) and M when messing about

Just seen this when driving past the other day. I like the exterior colour but not so with the interior.
