    A&M gearboxes in Chelmsford did my 1.6 Belmont Gearbox. (F13)

    It was £275 IIRC.

    Wouldn't bother these days, just chuck in another one

    ha ha!
    The boxs works i just remember it being a bit stiff in some gears. And with the amount i'm spend on the engine and car it seems silly not to check the gearbox first.
