I always found it strange how people in the UK prefer driving manual transmissions, there's always talk of liking the "feeling" and "control" when driving, this is coming from people who are not enthusiasts and don't even like driving sometimes. 90% of driving tests in the UK are done in manual transmission cars[1]. Taking your driving test in an automatic means that you are not allowed to drive a manual[2].
After living in the US for a few years, I'd never go back to a manual car. I view driving as a chore more than a pleasure and I can't wait for them to be fully self driving.
It definitely seems to be more luxury cars over here that are automatic, and the cars for the everyman seem to still be manual.
