No, its fairly reasonable but they are not commonly sought after sadly.

When you say new bearings, is it steel caged bearings and LSD fitted? if so, how much for the box?

Gear box has been serviced twice with new oils and seals, when the LSD was fitted the old owner supplied the LSD and the garage fitted new bearings, oils and seals etc but charged him £502.90 just for the work and the bearings as the old owner supplied the LSD himself, the receipt doesnt go into detail, however it was a gearbox specialist so i would bloody hope they were steel caged ones otherwise he got ripped off. But without taking the gearbox to bits i wouldnt know for sure. im selling as a whole unless you want to come and take it out of the car yourself which your welcome to use my garage/tools etc i just dont want to go down that route i want the whole car to go asap

Fair enough

If you get to the stage that you decide to remove the box let me know

I might be able to pop down with the engine hoist if you do need to remove the engine in exchange for some parts - get Sam and Pete to come and do the spanner bits.
