It's interesting, I'm majoring in Mechanical Engineering, so I wanna find more about it. But first, what does this AAD mean? and also DCA? I knew only AT AMT... for automatic transmissions, so what are these two concepts you mentioned about?
Thanx a lot

DCA - Dual Clutch Automatic
AAD - but its described on Antonov's website:

Including info on its use in the Rover 75 and Rover 25.

It´s funny to think they are still selling our ex-SEAT Toledo.

They're still selling 1954 Morris Oxford's in India...

I drove one in India in 1997. Cool. 1954 CHASSIS, 1980's Isuzu diesel engine, NO BRAKES (realistically), column shift and bench front seat, a really cool ride.

NO BRAKES (realistically)

I believe they now fit disk brakes to some of them, but you need to be careful using them as all the proper ones with their drum brakes all round pile into the back of you!
