Hi Folks
I've been away for a while due to what has turned out to be a fairly serious illness, thats the first part of the bad news, Now for the first piece of good news, i have a diagnosis, and i can be helped, it's a long road but i'm back on that road. Now for part two of the bad news Grandads phat Micra has a blown Gearbox, That wouldn't be so bad if it hadn't also suffered a catastrophic engine failure. Hey sometimes if it wasn't for bad luck we wouldn't have any luck at all. LOL
So heres the problem..... again due to my illness i haven't been able to work for a considerable time, i truely praise our benefits system, it has enabled me to lead a quiet but fairly unexiting life, the point being a complete lack of funds. So you have probably guessed where this is going....... I need a second hand 1.0l engine and box fairly urgently and remarkably cheaply.
I do know this is a really big ask but if ANY member can help me out it would be a massive help. You may already know i have mobility issues so losing the Micra is a huge setback.
Well there it is my problems are laid out before you, IF any one can help it would really be appreciated, and if you have read this far... thank you for taking the time to listen. I can be contacted through PM or on my mobile No which is 07871679043
Kind regards
Malcolm

Yippee !
I have been out surveying my sad Micra. Good, NO great news .... The Engine lives I cannot tell you how that makes me feel, Absolutely fantastic.
So although now less of a panic, i do still need an economicaly priced gearbox. so folks if you could bear that in mind i would be extremely grateful.
Kind regards

OUCH hahaha
Once again thank you ALL for your kind thoughts
