Can you not get a gearbox out of a scrappy for a lot less?

Maybe convert it to be a manual instead if you can get a manual box for less?

Were you pissed off with the xsara? i always crap myself when buying a car to replace the one you've had for a while and you know is bullet proof.

Probably the reason i had my xsara for 8 years "better the devil you know as they say".... or it may have been the fact i only paid a grand for it when it was only 5 years old. :supafrisk:
