911 history and ownership is a complicated little sub culture that takes some getting used to.

One thing I have noticed is how gearbox technology has moved on and how we now just take it for granted. The 915 gearbox which predates the G50 can be rewarding and as sweet as a nut to use, but you have to get used to it and work with it or it shows its displeasure.

I still worry abut moving into the wrong gear at speed - the money shift I believe Americans call it!

They are a whole lot more interesting than Kruger Rands and make all the right noises.

I'm really liking the money shift and "may your God go with you" and prevent you making such a move, don't think DA will mind me using that one.
