Yes, even though they are manual gearboxes, they are and can be driven automatically with two pedals. My sister has one, driving with an auto only licence.

Currently in for the third time in three years for gearbox repairs. Solenoid and ecu are always playing up. Best way to drive it I found was as a manual. Foot off accelerator, change gear, foot on accelerator again.
