Rotors only come in 18".

I've managed to blag an S-tronic one for use next weekend, as weighing up S-Tronic Vs Manual.
I want to use S-tronic in a day-2-day environment and for more then just a rag up and down a dual carriageway outside the dealers.
The S-tronic comes with bonus's (better exhaust tunes, quicker shifts, launch control and the choice of lazy or full-on) but I need to establish if I can live with some of it's effects when 'it' has control.

I didn't get on too well with my 2010 S4 S-Tronic and I didn't settle in with any of the modes D, S or Full Manual. But it was an earlier system that seemed to of improved on the S3 when I test drove one last week (also tried a DSG in a Cupra290). But it was only a 15 minute session in both, hence the blagging.

The Manual would be the safe bet and 300ps would soon become 370ps
