Re: 6 speed gearbox
My only conclusion from reading this is that in another decade, I'll have one of the few stock all-original roadsters with a working tranny. I understand the "drive the wheels off of it" mentality, but I have 50k miles on mine and continue to treat it nicely. Sure, some hard acceleration through the gears and have had it to 140 a couple times, but not dropping the hammer at 3-4k rpm. Call me a wussy, but a wussy with a working XF.
