Any approved driving instructor must therefore be able to offer instruction in cars fitted with either automatic or manual transmission.
In place of the old two-stroke engine and manual transmission the newer models have a more powerful engine and automatic transmission.
Both versions had a 5-speed manual transmission with a dog-leg gearbox arrangement.
The transmission now exclusively uses a floor-mounted gearshifter, and a five-speed manual transmission was still available.
In comparison, the 1.6 litre models had a top speed of 184km/hmph 0 with a manual transmission, or 175km/hmph 0 with an automatic.
The car has a 4-speed manual transmission with synchromesh on gears 2, 3 and 4.
It is available with a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic.
Amongst the changes was a six-speed manual transmission, four new exterior colours, and revised wheels trims.
