I have from breaking my car a complete manual gearbox set up comprising of,

5 Speed gearbox
Gearstick and connections
Hydralic pipework
Pedalbox
Mounts for 'box and exhaust
Flywheel
Clutch (ONLY DONE 3000MILES!!! NEW LESS THAN A YEAR AGO)

and anything else you need to complete the convertion

I can get it couriered to you at a cost of £40, but collection prefered

£100 ono

Cheers
John

Is the R28 a good box?

I'd offer £50 for it, given that I'm gonna put a proper gearbox in the MV6 :D
