Well even my 20 years old auto gearbox looks working fine, in case downhill is a bit steep I'm downgrading to gear 4, 3 or even 2 (in corners) to avoid taking too much speed or to save my brakes - unless I'm closely followed by a chap because till you don't use the brake pedal your stop lights are turned off. I reckon it's good fun at least from my point of view.
