Well, a tow truck is quite niche...
Vans in the UK (almost exclusively diesel thanks to the torque) tend to be quite long geared. If you aren't hauling much you can even often skip a gear and shift up quite eagerly. I don't find manual vans very tedious, but then again, I've never had an auto van! I'd say they either don't exist or are exceedingly rare in the van rental market in the UK (I can't imagine an auto tow truck existing either)
