Sorry boss, I can't really help you.

I've used this scrap yard in the past and have found them to be useful:

Don't go by their website, give them a ring to see if they have anything.

Hope you get it sorted pal.

Have you rang any gearbox companies?

I work next door to a company called Ace Gearboxes, their VW gearboxes start at something like £250 and they deliver nationwide.  I think their website is www.acegearboxes.co.uk

nice one benny  , remember and be nice to this one 

[JPC]

you going for the second hand one then?

[vRStu]

Do you have the part number or model code of your current box that will help you source one.  It will be a common VAG one so should be easy to source once you are able to properly explain what you are looking for.

[bennylenny88]

[bennylenny88]

Twice I've replied to your posts about this with the intention of offering you help but you don't seem to be interested so perhaps £650 fitted would be your best option.
