Been troubling me since just after I bought the car, the gearchange was always a bit stiff occasionally between 4th and 5th, sometimes took major effort to get the lever across. While checking the car was out of gear last night, I heard a clunking noise. Took the leather gaitor off the gear stick where the noise was coming from and found a battery that had slipped out my ash tray, down the back and trapped itself below my gear linkage making it stiff. The battery was a bit flat in more ways than one

Better phone and cancel the new gearbox then. Glad I didn't ask Fiat to check it out or they would have laughed at me

Its totally standard GT3. If you've seen a pic of Vibrios, then mine is the same except I have tinted windows and don't have a 1990 DTM tailpipe. In fact, I don't have a tailpipe at all!
