OK Really dumb question; 450 or 451
How do you tell the difference between 450 / 451?
I searched but could not come up with answer.

Gently turn it over and look between its back tires. Ooops, mixing this up with the neighbor’s new puppy.
Seriously though at a glance, if the door handles are horizontal, pointing front/back you are looking at a 451. If however the handles point up/down it is a 450 you see.

I believe the 450 has three tail lights on each side where the 451 has only two on each side.
