Top end of engine as only 2x valves per cylinder I think, not a variable vain turbo which I think maybe more reliable, older style cab layout as it's a hybrid 10/20 series layout. Standards can come with a older style hydraulic pump rather than a ccls system especially in smaller models, stabilzers at old style as well.

No head gasket troubles with them then?

I looked into one a few years ago. Tls was available but not 50k. Was told that only the 6930 had the ccls pump fitted as standard, the smaller models did not have it. No headland management available. Lots of contractors using them locally and seem to do well. Think it had a bit less power than a premium
