I checked Jeep.co.uk and guess what:
1). Ruby diesel - NO manual - Auto only
2). X & Sahara - get a manual with their Diesels
Hope thats not the case when a diesel goes into production here - ya gotta have a manual

Mine is a 4 door CRD Rubi with manual
I'm in Italy, and it's the only one I've seen yet

What ARE we doing on a thread from 2006
??
Anyway, Diesel Rubicons are made with manual and with auto. Mine's auto and it's a better buy, as the manuals are geared so highly they can't reach their top speed. Furthermore, the manual gearbox is weaker and can't shouldn't be tuned.

(GPS verified) ONCE and will never do it again! 
At this speed:
1- Steering: SUCKS big time
2- Brakes: Become non exisant
3- Noise: CAN YOU HEAR MEEEEE?
No thanks, I'm fine with 120-130 km/h on highways (hate 'em anyhow) in my Jeep...
