Could be interesting, but haven't they had abit of a reputation for being abit iffy even when on as standard? Wouldn't be worth the effort i don't think.

If your pockets are deep enough go for it, i prefer standard gear stick to padel shifts though

How Come You Prefer Standard? Yeh I Know It's Going To Cost Fair A Bit. But It Would Be Worth It I Belive!

You have to get an auto box. Or some of the pug 107s have paddle shift, another box on the back of the gearbox which changes gear but they are supposed to be really, really shit lol. No point, to much work/money for no real gain, spend the money making it quicker!

Still pretty pointless man.
The amount of money you would have to spend on converting it and then on the extra insurance could buy you a pretty tidy VTS
