No but they are hard to find. Had problems finding a manual when we were looking for our GV3.

These days less than 10% of all new cars sold in australia are manual. world wide its less than 2%. (or so ive been told)

Our Diesel's a manual, because I think that's the only way they come?

had mine down numerous beaches, bush and mud...
got it bogged badly once, lucky a Daihatsu come along to pull me out (the shame the shame)

now with better suspension, a lot more confident with it...

get it muddy...stuff the critics....it does well as long as you are not silly...or even if your are!

as above ours does great, even on some semi harder crawls, and when it cocks a leg in the air it locks the brakes so you dont get wheel spin :O
its like having lockers. very helpful, makes up for other shortcomings.

because of its capabiity its actually easy to start doing stuff better then the car will cop, oops there goes the plastic undertray lol.

ours is a stock GV 2.7 5 speed auto. got the prestige model so climate control and leather is nice haha.

In all the new GVs the 3.2 V6 only comes in auto only. 2.4 4 potter auto and man. 1.9 dsl man only if im not mistaken. The 2.7 fell off the planet a couple years ago. 3.2 replaced it

yep, but seeing as this is the JB thread rather than the JT thread thats ok. :)

i will probably never wheel my GV. simply because i have an LJ50 on 33s its not worth bothering with it.
