@HamptonBallance Yes, it is the same shift pattern as a modern car. I'm not sure about reverse, but 1-through-4 starts at the upper left, and ends at the lower right, just like any other 4-speed. Like a backwards "N" pattern when you run through the gears. I'd guess that reverse is beside first, but that's just a guess; I've seen a few older European cars like that.

Straight-cut gears? In all gears, or just in 1st and 2nd? And where is this filmed? LHD, and driving on the right side of the road, so it can't be the UK. Anyway, lovely car.

What a fantastic sound! Even the 1st gear whine sounds lovely.
