I was warned by several friends to avoid the duo select version, but to my mind it's the way the car was conceived, and I believe that one day it will be considered the true 'classic' over the auto version. What are your thoughts?
Welcome from me too.
DS is the way to go for driver involvement. Being an ex-Alfa man you clearly understand that and have made the right decision. The ZF is good for town driving, but if you do most of your driving in town, you're doing it in the wrong type of car. Again, you're spot on to use something like a Prius for that.
Regarding clutch slip - that shouldn't be happening after only 7k miles, even in London. I doubt you're mistaken, so there must be something wrong - get it along to Voicey (independent specialist in Chiswick - how handy is that?!) to get it checked. The F1 system calculates how worn it is (not necessarily accurate) so that may yield some clues. Who changed the clutch? It needs to be done by a specialist and set up correctly with some very expensive diagnostic kit (also used on Ferraris: SD2/3).
