Anyone own a Cat 313BCR?

I am in the market for a 120 size machine and wonder if anyone owns one or knows someone who owns one. Tried it out today and seems prety fas and smooth. Cab is small, has no armrests, and no foot pedals to control travel. Seems to be about the same size as the 312 with a small tail swing. Anyone have any opinions on it?

    Look into a kobelco 135sr,our is great on fuel,runs very very fast compared to other comparable machines.( I ran most 135 size machines before we purchased the kobelco).It is very stable. read the stats the shrt tail machines actually will lift more over the front of the machines then their regular tail brothers.They only lift a few hundred pounds less over the side then a regular tail. Like I said read the stats that is the truth
