UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

I realise this possibly isnt the best place to post this, as we do have a for sale section. Basically, 4th gear is completely grinded off in my gearbox, and i need another box for my gti. Has anybody got one to sell? I need to have it courier'd down, until you live near London then I can possibly go up and pick it up from yourselves. Let me know asap

Cheers,

How much were you wanting to pay mate? I got my gearbox for £470 recons from some place in Kent

No I just need a second hand gearbox, from someone breaking their polo gti, or having one lying about

Shameless plug.

Problem is Rich, i'm not lookin to spend £900 I only need a gearbox mate.

You can fence your stuff on afterwards !

It'll be fine.

I've got a 1.4 75bhp Lupo box kicking about as well.

I'd suggest investing the £470-£500 in a re-con box that has had all the rivets changed to nuts n bolts and the upgraded bearings etc.... as putting a second hand box in could or probably will end up doing the exact same thing.

Take time to weight up your options I's say.

I agree with Ben. It's best to get one with the rivets changed to bolts as it'll only happen again. I can unfortunately speak from experience

Can anyone recommend a decent place that will sell me a recon box? I'm in the surrey area.

I got mine from a place in Kent and they were amazing. I'll have a look when I get home to find the. Ame of it. They were great!

If you can mate, that would be great

My credit card bills don't go back that far. Ill try and remember the name of the place if I can though

Just remembered, here Ya go mate
