Depends on the Car.

In a van I would love to have a Automatic (VW Transporter T6 TDI 220pk + stage 4 tuning makes it +/- 300 pk then automatic)

but in a Opel/Vauxhall Corsa I would love to have a Manuel because its fun to drive and boring with a automatic.
My own car: Volvo S60 2.4L 170BHP

Automatic on some cars (like more luxury cars or SUVs). Manual on older cars they are funnier and you can do a burnout :)

Manual

But I live in the city, so traffic is quite terrible, and driving a manual in stop and go traffic just hurts the knee, and so I would prefer a DCT in traffic - it's the closest I can get to a manual.However, when the roads are empty, I find the manual most fun and most practical.

Whats is DCT?

A DCT is a dual-clutch transmission. Basically, there are 2 clutches, and when lets say you're in 4th, the next gear is already prepared in the 2nd clutch which thus makes it super quick and efficient.
Computer Specs:
ASUS TUF FX505DT
[Processor] AMD Ryzen 5 3500H @ 3.7 GHz
[RAM] 16GB 2666MHz DDR4
[Storage] 256 GB PCIE SSD + 1 TB SATA SSD
[Graphics] NVIDIA GTX 1650 (4GB GDDR5)

To the good times.

Much love.
Peace.

What LMGamer456 said in the post above this one.

In simple terms, it's essentially an automatic with the responsiveness and efficiency of a manual. This enables you to have virtually no power loss, shift gears more quickly, and use the car's power more effectively like in a manual, without having to constantly modulate a clutch pedal in traffic.

In two words: Automated manual
