An autobox can be shifted through a bend which is unwise in a manual.

Reason is the power flow is virtually uninterrupted during an automatic shift.

Apart from a little delay on a standing start the auto box is fantastic. Taller gear ratios across the gears make the automatic more drivable in the real world.

My manual shift always has that over eager, frenetic feeling like a terrier after my pant leg, fun for some of the time but can get a bit wearing when you get serious and want to actually get somewhere.
