Do any sets other than the 8459 steer by bending in the middle? I have it in • my
that there is another but I can't remember which. Any ideas?

8443, AFAIK. Actually it has two type of steering. Its both rear axes
are steerable, one by a technic turntable and the other by classic rock
and pinion mechanism.

This mixed me up too. I was sure it was a bendy type, but then I remebered the
rack. But a quick look at the instructions shows that it does have both.

The steering of 8459 is a realistic one, although the mechanism is
hydraulically powered in real examples.
