Whilst I can’t comment on the gearbox issue, if she has been good to you then what is a £1000? To buy a replacement for her will cost you more.

Looking at your MOT history you have a few bits of welding to do and some brake pipe to replace. Is it lots of welding that is needed?

It is easy for a garage to say if it is worth fixing or not but only you can determine the value of the car to you. I am spending just shy of £3000 on my 1998 Patrol. Is it worth it in the economic sense? No not at all but she is worth it to me. I love my SWB Patrol and hope to run her for another 10 years.
