Evoque gearbox 6 speed or 9

[flatsix3.6]

Considering a used Evoque is the 9 speed box an improvement on the six speed, or is the difference not that great to notice.

Anyone have a idea on the above, as im looking too ,

I've driven 15k or so miles with the 6-speed and 2k or so with the 9-speed. There's nothing wrong with either, to be honest, and I'd be perfectly happy with the earlier gearbox in my own car. The later car does seem faster than the earlier one, though, and the fuel economy is a good chunk better to boot. Both cars have been the Si4 petrol version, but I guess the diesels would behave in much the same way.

Thanks David, picking my 2013 diesal up on Saturday, 6 speed box ,

I stuck to the budget and picked up a 13 plate with 6 speed, seems ok.
