The Gen 3, according to Arnott, has a different displacer giving very different spring rate characteristics to the Gen 2.

So the gumf says. When I spoke to them they said the difference was negligible but having tried both I think it is noticeable. Not a lot, maybe but definitely noticeable, especially with a difference across the axle.
 
Gave the steering wheel a wipe over..

Doesn't look brilliant, however it needs restoring, getting the grease off is an improvement to the feel!! ;)

I had a small leak coming from the gearbox. Figured I hadn't tightened up the drain plug properly when I changed the oil. So went out to nip it up. Then this happened:
