Hey there chaps, just noticed my gear changes becoming 'squeekier' is this a sign of a developing problem? or just normal ware and tare?
Also my first gear is a bit a problem to find, i usually have to drop her down in second then first to get a good fit. I also had this problem with my 440 some time ago so i guess thats another common fault.
Any ideas or info would be welcome!
thanks in advance chaps and chapettes

Things i have done to solve awkward first gears on various cars:
1/ adjusted the clitch cable
2/ replaced clutch cable
3/ replaced clutch when the awkward first became an awkward first and second, then first to third etc until i couldnt engage a gear at all!!

There are a number of mechanical devices which increase sexual arousal, particularly in women. Chief among these is the Volvo 480 ;)
