Column Mounted Shifters

Why is everyone commenting about automatic gearboxes when the OP has asked a question about (manual) column shifts?
Actually I was interested in column shifts in general, they seem quite novel. Didn't know the new 7 had one - I thought it was either a traditional auto stick or a rotary dial a la JagMost 50s & 60s Holdens had them in Oz, & I thought the Ford Zephyrs & Vauxhall Velox had them too.
The Holden one required a bit of modification to give a fast shift from first to second.
As they became worn you had to give them a bit of time or the linkages jammed together, & you had to reach down under the bonnet, beside the steering column, with a long screwdriver to separate them.

A40 Somerset/Cambridge, 4 forward and pull the knob out at the end of the lever to overcome the reverse stop.
