.. seen this rev 4 turbo i like... the car is in superb condition with some tasteful mods 2, but always a but.. the only problem with it it needs a gear linkage be cos the 3rd gear is sometimes hard 2 get in.. he has just bought some new 1s and has no time 2 fit before sunday... is this true and what advice can u give me.. is the gear box fooked ? or does this sound right and expensive 2 fit? 
Seems like he's trying to make it look like a cheap fix. It's not a great sign when gears don't go in very easily., keep well away or could it be sorted... how much 2 sort out the gear problem..? can you describe how it is hard to get into ? any noises (grind - crunch) ???.. but he has told me this... the 3rd gear sometimes is hard 2 get in,with a crunch/ grind. ive had a think about it and im keeping away.. sounds like a expensive road 2 go down... 
You can pick up low mileage ones off e-bay for around £250 but there's always a risk. Rebuild would be about £450ish.
