Default Bug gearbox wont select gears and very hard to move stick even in neutral

Headed home tonight from work and went to accelerate sharply joining main road to get up to speed and i got a big shudder and loss of drive while in second, I declutched and found it wouldnt find second at all, tried 3rd and it went in, tootled home in 3rd with slight metallic noise all the way. Got home and parked up, cant find 1st, 2nd,3rd,4th nor reverse but does seem to find 5th but zero drive given the ratio. Engine revs freely in neutral though wiggling the gear stick is almost impossible as it feels like its being blocked from virtually every angle.
Selector forks or something more sinister?
01 bug running pinks injectors and clutch and vf24 turbo circa 300.
