I'm glad you got it if I wasn't going to lol... I was after it once I saw the gear drive underneath. It doesn't sound to loud though.

One of the gears is quite worn however if you keep it going at a good pace she quites down ...
When you are 80+ there may be some issues also

Well 15 for me, I do like these box cabs, so simple yet appealing. If I keep my gears well greased, hopefully I will be good for a few more laps too, by 80.
