    Anyone got a spare SIII gearbox? Somewhere near Glasgow would be nice.

    Default I KNOW!!!!!

    A mate of mine has a S3 complete vehicle( with shagged chassis). FWhubs, O/d 2.5D. It's been stood for twelve months or so and is a trailer job. Can't vouch for wear & tear of components but was a runner when the MOT man started laughing. Shouldn't be expensive. It's in Sheffield, which, unless they've recently shifted it, isn't near Glasgi though. You want his details?
    If there wasn't petrol - I would pedal

    I have found someone in Glenrothes selling engine and 'box for £50. If thats no good, then I'll get back to you. I could pick it up on the way back from Billing.

    His mate has a tractor so getting it on the trailer will be easy. But getting it off..............
