Are the 5 speeders rare? :shock:


On 3 stud cars, 5 speed boxes are rare.
On 4 stud cars the majority are 5 speed boxes.

Am I jinxed?

Postby Tony Smith » Sun May 07, 2006 8:33 am

Paul was taking the car for its MOT on saturday and one of the heater matrix hoses split and deposited its contents in the footwell of the car! Fixed now and hopefully will sail through its mot on Monday
