Cheers to Guido - good bloke, good buy - I have had an evening of fun and frolics, I can tell ya. Scoobynet did the trick in finding the right car.

One concerning moment, coming up to a roundabout at speed, heel and toed down (double declutching) from 3rd to second, and got an awful bang from the rear offside??? Had been getting big kicks up the *** on high speed gearchanges till I found I was letting the clutch out too quick, think maybe this was the same - but sounded a bit ominous (was thinking rear diff), but everything seemed OK???

Any ideas?

What car did you get?

I noticed the bangs from the clutch/gearbox when changing too quickly as well - although that was in a forester. Nothing I could pin down to one side though.
Does it happen every time?

My MY97 does this when I'm a bit too spirited in my gear changes. I think (hope?) it's a 'they all do that sir'
