Well the gearbox is the same, just the ratios that are different. You're not fudging anything or making it worse somehow just it will be revving slightly higher in each gear (which has its advantages and disadvantages)..

But AutoLusso's box + a Q2 and fitted for approx £1200 is a bargain, I'd go for that.

How old's the car? I'd get them belts changed sooner rather than later if I were you.. Once bitten and all that

Best of luck with it
