My 4 sp crash was like that for a while but it since has bedded in. Selection is very precise and there's no slop in the lever according to our facially hirsute spell master. So much better than it jumping out of 3rd!
Enjoy!
Yes, the lever will feel rather stiff to start with but it does eventually ease off.
By the way it's a great idea with a standard A7 gear lever to check for cracks in the vicinity of the circlip groove for the chrome gate indicator domed plate (it must be called something simpler than that?) I've had two break here - one on the way home from an MOT test (!) and one in a remote forest in Sweden (!!)
