Honestly, I'm not sure, since it's been *cough* twenty years since I learned, and back then, we had the same rule - i.e. if you learned on automatics, it said so in your licence and you needed to take a second test if, etc. But today, there are hardly any non-automatic cars left, so I wonder!

Public transport: let me clarify - buses get to Deia itself, they're just not allowed to drive in the old city centre, which is good because those streets are TINY (or is the right word "tight"? "slim"? "narrow"?) and a bus would entirely block them, keeping out not only cars but people. Graves' home, otoh, is NOT in the bus-free zone, it's outside of the city core, which means buses can drive there. So it's not like he can be accused of self interest. (Unless one postulates he liked using the bus himself?)

Tramway at Port de Soller: yes, it's running!
