Citroen don't make a real automatic, always electrical controlled robot manual box. They never have had a proper auto.

Proper automatic every time in my book. I hate changing gear. Especially when the B9 gearbox shift is terrible. French cars have rubbish gear shift action.

I’m pleased to read this, having a very popular gear box is handy going forward
I’m amazed at the size of the cars with the same gear box, my little berlingo will barely put and load on it compared to a Land Rover discovery towing a horse box

There are variations in clutches and other bits that match the torque level of a particular application. So Land Rover has a beefed up version of the same box.
