glynherron 9 Report post Posted December 16, 2018 Some old timers on here may remember me from over 10 years ago. Sold my s4s to Barry and now Just a heads up that I'm starting to sell off my remaining esprit parts. On eBay now 173691754027 I've a gearbox, aluminium dash, cam timing setting tools, digital speedometer, clutch fork, toolkit, and loads that I've got to open from storage. I'll make sure I update this so you know where to look Thanks Glyn 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So @Barrykearley buys a car from you in bits, puts it all together and finds the gearbox is knackered, suddenly you reappear after 10 years and just so happen to have a spare one!!!! Did you tell him the box was shot? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barrykearley 4,769 Report post Posted December 16, 2018 I’d rather think my driving style is the issue here. Was only a matter of time until them little rings were needing replacement. How this gearbox ever made it into these cars I’ll never know - I mean if you can’t rush the 1st to 2nd gear change - maybe an auto would have been more suitable. And to be absolutely clear - I was offered that gearbox at the time of buying the S4s Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And the box is from a V8... been in this forum since the beginning. Check my date and number. Just not been around lately. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
