ah nuts that's too bad mate... Still, the hole doesn't look that big, you may be able to JB Weld it back up? Sounds like the car's not relied on as a daily driver so that might be an idea....  :smiley:

That was a second hand box judging by the yellow writing on the box as well.  Dont you just love the way these cars eat gearboxes(not!!!) Mines on its second and this one is getting noisier by the day!! Im just waiting for it to go bang :sick:
