    First impressions:

    1. Suspension technology have moved on quite a bit since the 2000
    model. That would buck around on bumpy and uneven roads. This ones
    seems much more stable.

    2. The standard cans make an awesome noise. From a low grumble when
    bimbling to a loud bark when beans are applied and it even crackles and
    pops on the over-run! It sounds superb. Not too loud but definately not
    quiet.

    3. It seems to weigh about as much as Paris Hilton.

    Daz would have cut his bollocks off if he had.

    You say that like it's a bad thing.

    It might wipe that fucking grin off his face. For a couple of minutes.

    Oh, but you were tempted when you saw the gold, you must admit.

    It's only a matter of time.
