Due to knee problems the V8s is going up for sale, if it could be changed to auto easily then it would stay.

I have enjoyed every moment and love the new gauge's and seatbelt brackets which have made the enjoyment much much better

Below is the advert if anyone can think of anything else to add please let me know or if anyone knows of someone looking for a v8s please let me know

I looked at auto options myself as there is a box available that fits the V8 although not sure its that great and I reckon it is too wide for the transmission tunnel anyway.

Hi
You would need to know the size of a SD1 auto box to see if it would fit, no ECU required but you would need to have the prop shaft made to suite, would be a easy conversion if you are mechanically minded,

Prop may not be as tricky as you think as it is telescopic with a 4 bolt flange each end on the V8s. It looks very similar to front land rover props that I have seen on ebay but that is a guess.
