Thank you for the pictures :)

I can see its confusing. This is the ELECTRONIC GEARBOX SYSTEM. I didn't know that it was available on the C3 on your year.

Its all cogs like a manual but with computer control.

The thing is - is it a good gearbox or not? Have they had lots of issues?

I was trying to read the text but I cant read what it says on the image.The image is of 6 gear? mine is 4 gear. Looks like using as a manual there is less to go wrong? So there is no clutch on this car despite being a manual gearbox?
