Converting A Manual To An Automatic Car: {advice From Experience Needed}

Hi people,
Could you share your experiences on manual cars that are converted to automatic cars here in naija, if it was done well and where it was done if it works perfectly,
I actually need an expert advice because am in a dilema on changing my manual ford{scopio} to an automatic, i love the car a lot, but only wished it was automatic, i ve been trying to find the same make ,which is automatic but can't find, I was given an option of converting it, and that it is possible for it to be done perfectly here in naija, Kindly share your views {directly or indirectly} on the experience that u ve had on such cars converted, I strongly believe that ford scopio was/is mistake in terms of perfection , my car looks newer each passing day, no major problem and rugged to the naija factor, my surprise is that people don't really know this secret, NEVER KNEW MYSELF, UNTIL I BOUGHT IT AND IT REFUSED TO AGE

Answer: Sell your manual, and buy an auto.

It's simple economics, and practicality.
I don't know the standard of "conversions" in Nigeria, not sure I want to find out either.
