Gearbox is the original 1303 1300cc one. I ve toped 160 km/h @6.2k rpm
Usually i drive the car hard on the streets, drifting in roundabouts and trying to beat the ricers when possible
I change the oil 2-3 times per year. Consider that the car is driven only when im back home, like 5 months/year

Doesnt it give you great satisfaction to kick the pants off this Jap blown stuff in an air cooled 1936 designed antique! Brent
