Right my brother had a look at it last night. Took wheels off and jacked car up underneath, stripped it down and found its just the inner cv thats gone not the gearbox Thankgod. So we replaced the smashed to bits one replaced the shaft and the cars back working again just need a couple of little things before its drivable again.

I sheared my exhaust off at the turbo mouth as I left Santa Pod, so had to drive 100+ miles at less than 3k rpm on the motorway with the windows and sunroof open in the winter with entirely no exhaust at all.

I had to get my car low loadered home at a cost of £290 last year at max power.
Pulled in at tibshelf services, spun it around and it popped a driveshaft and loads ball bearings flew all over place. Was shit I thought i had breakdown with my insurance but they dont renew that with insurance renawal even tho they asked me and i said yes
Oh well you live and learn
