Automation for experts?

Sir,

Your weekly contemporary records no less a person than Stirling Moss, with licence restored, at the wheel of his new automatic Zodiac.

I sometimes wonder if this type of gearbox meets with Editorial approval but since fast motor cars can be so equipped it would be most interesting to hear the views of your readers who have driven many miles with this form of transmission.

One wonders if the three speeds of Borg-Warner have the edge over four speeds and overdrive.

What do enthusiasts think ?

I am, Yours, etc.,
