It probably an F17. (or maybe an f17+)

The gear box number & type are stamped on the n/s end of the box, as visible from inside the n/s wheel arch.

However, they are stamped very very faintly. After a few years (months??) the small amount of surface corrosion the aluminum casings under-go will cause the number to vanish from sight.

To make them visible again you need some very fine wet-and dry sand-paper, some light oil, a light touch, and a bright torch. Too vigorous an approach will quite literally sand the numbers off for good. You also need to know exactly where to look. I suggest calling in at your local dealer so you can be shown exactly where to look.

if your reverse gear is at the top left then its the f17.
