I realised a teeny tiny bit late, but the title of the song ends in 'Don't Let the Bells END', not 'RING'. Dammit!!!

As long as your car doesn't suddenly turn charred black, then I think you'll be alright! :)

That's not cool, the breaking down part happens to most, but the vandalism is really not cool. Sorry :(

Cheers dude. I can't see "top" or "bottom" on mine anywhere but there is a part number stamped and there are grooves around the holes for what I'm assuming are the head studs.

Yep! The photo someone posted of their copper gasket helps a lot. I have two genuine ones from Mini Spares (3rd on the way - long story) and so far, neither have the orientation stamped. All I can see is "9-2012F" which is embossed on the top-rear of the gasket.

I have had all of the defenders and still kept my series 3, you want the 200tdi with LT77 gearbox, for most reliable... don't buy TDCI transit one as I have had two and they are sh*t!!
