Gallardo gear box choice - advise needed

Hi
I've decided to go for Gallardo since weather in Moscow isn't best one even now, and G is 4 wheel driven.
Confused with option on gear box - have few cars to choose from
04 e-gear
04 manual!
05 e-gear
07 priced twice as 04-05 so out of question
What are the differences between gearboxes from year to year and who can tell about manual on G ?
how long clutch stays alive on e-gear?

Thank you in advance
Alexander

I would strongly recommend a 6 speed over the early e-gears. Mostly because you are in Moscow, and I can't imagine a dealer being around the corner.

The early 6 speeds were virtually trouble free, the e-gears can leave you helpless if it decides to freak out on you.

Than you for opinions

I'd better go for manual G , despite there are few places where to serve, but parts availability and costs normally double compare to EU.
Thank you

If I had a choice again, I would have gone with a manual. Only because I miss burning out easily

egear is a stomp and go style.
