slips out of 2nd & 3rd gear when I ease off the accelerator, my mechanic has looked and its nothing external, he thinks its the gearbox is bolloxed but his regular gearbox guy wont touch it as its to old & he said was difficult to get parts (in other words he doesn't want the hassle of an old gearbox), anybody recommend a "trustworthy gearbox guy" around the Bedfordshire area
