There may be other differences as well. As for one being better than the other, essentially they are the same design and they are made in the same factory. Why the versions fitted to Rover models seem to be trouble free is a mystery.

Hi,
Are the drive shaft sprocket, the drive pinion and the pin of the Mini Cooper gearbox the same of the Rover 200/400 gearbox?
Thanks
