Yes I find the gear lever coming out of the dashboard very easy to use on the 2CV and of course it keeps the centre clear for other uses. Interesting that Mercedes and some Citroens have reverted to column shifts for their automatics, so their market research must have shown that they’re popular. Now that most automatic gear-shifts are just electronic controls the gear-shift could be almost anywhere.
