With respect to the current (or near recent) B-GF range is there anywhere I can find the following info:
1. What old Poole models are still on offer i.e. no updates body or motor.
2. What models retain the original Poole body but have an updated motor.
3. Which are the entirely new models.
The info would be very useful for purchasing purposes.
