| I guess they didn't make the first few the way they should have done! What gets me is that you got through so many boxes after that! The guys reconditioning them should be shot! Would you consider dropping in an S box if this one goes pop?  What new bits? I didn't buy any new bits...  |

| well that may be why my car never gets the getrag when i get a new box fitted... grrrr well hopefully the recoditioned box will have a longer life than a factory made one... hopefully the parts they have used will be a bit more durable  |

| which is why i think you can only get them from either crashed cars or re-con companies such as Mini mania UK.. they say that their re-con box will last longer than the midland box as it was orginal because they use better parts... |
