This was the fastest Streetlite at Diamond at one point. Unlike the 16 plates, it'll go all the way to 62mph. The 16 plates will only go up to 50mph. Anyway, usual story. Now in full Diamond spec...</p>

Very smooth bus. It was actually nice to drive. Just had little heating. This batch of 5 have kickdown. Doesn’t really make a difference however as they’re gutless in the first place. Very smooth though.</p>

The best Signature Solo to drive. Only criticism is it leans wayyyyy to much on the corners. This and MFX are the fastest ones. The other two are scrap.</p>
