There's a wide range of trannys out there but the best one to look for is one with no rust!
Once the dreaded tinworm takes place you can start watching your van disapear. I managed to find one with no rust at all but is has 29k and wasn't cheap!
Good luck with your search

If you want a Mk2, look at this! The bids haven't moved much, well cute and very cheap!!

Obviously your eyesite is better than mine!
From that little pic alone I can't see much rust, but your choice!
