    Automatics are less economic, even more so if you're not experienced driving them and it's flicking up and down the gears all the time.

    They put a bit more stress on the engine, due to it naturally high revving.

    They're awful to drive in icy conditions.
    Expensive to fix if they go wrong, if you don't have to replace the whole box.

    But they are great for city driving, long stretchs of straight road, they are pretty smooth and take a lot of hassle out of driving.

    Manuals consume less fuel, you have more control of your car in adverse conditions but can prove less economical in city driving. And you have to move your hand every 2 mins.

    actually ive just realised you asked about money difference :lol:

    automatics are usually slightly dearer, i think youll find as you go up the ladder to better and more expensive cars the price gap will get a little bigger too.
