Gearbox problems

[seanfeighery]

Hi all,

just bought a 1.1 desire 52 plate and after 3 days the gearbox has gone up the sh*tter! so if anone has one laying around i would be most interested!

also have seen some talk of being able to fit VTR/VTS/105 gearboxes to the car no problem is that possible?

any saxo/106 gearbox will fit but your best to just get another 1.1 box. they are quite cheap and easy to come by
