It is a very clean looking car for sure. I never owned one back in the day, as I was a schumacher driver. However, I was very good friends with some of the very top team drivers, so have a very good idea of some of the things that were going on. There were a number of subtle changes certainly around the XK5/98 time period that many people never knew about, and some of the team didn't like / reverse engineered out!!

The only one I owned was an X10 as Schumacher had got out of the off road market then, so although I still drove for them, I was free to run any off rd cars I wanted. To me the X10 never felt "right", not like the 5/98 cars. Hard to know if the changing of the tracks paid a part though. You could get it to work on odd days, but it was always difficult to drive.
