What's the gearbox common problem on the early BINI, 51 plate? Looking at one ATM, on Ebay. How much to fix. I can do the work myself, apart from anything internal to the gearbox.

It would be a bargain if It's just the release bearing. It would only cost around £100 to fix, and easy enough to diagnose.

The midland boxes on the one and coopers (prefacelift) are weak. The getrag ones are much stronger. I don't know exactly what breaks in them but its more of a case of when they break not if.

When you look at the cost of your basket from MED its depresing, then you get to the check out and there is another £10 for postage, it makes your eyes water :(

Today has just been one of those days.... had a feeling it would be. It started out by traffic all the way to work then found out 2 of my tyres have been put on the wrong way round (inside on the outside)

The guy wasn't thinking and they're going to sort it out on Saturday. He was probably having a day like I have today! I had a lot of trouble finding somewhere local to fit tyres to my 10" wheels in the first place haha

I really don't enjoy dealing with some courier companies... It's almost as if bad customer service is a job requirement :\

Anyone know if a fibreglass front end will fit in the back of a K11 Micra?
