I am pretty sure that the Duckhams ad shown above is the later version and that the earlier one had a rolling stones song - something like paint it black playing in the background - can anyone remember

what he said
it's the same as those cut away turbo's and stuff, they've chopped it up to show how things work and wehre the oil lubricatse and stuff
most of the riciprocating parts are plastic anyway
