Fsm gearbox. Can you still get one?

[SAJNA]

Further to my thread "gearbox ratio nightmare", is it still possible to obtain a gearbox for Fabia vRS with the code FSM ?? This is the one with the long ratios. My 07 has the short ratios and is useless as a teaching car for learners. My previous tutor car is a Jan 04 with the longer box and is superb at the job. Total dilemma!! Any suggestions ??

Surely a car where you have to change up and down often is a better car for a learner??? Changing up and down the gears and clutch control are the hardest parts of learning to drive and if your students continue to use the gearbox you have then surely this means they will get more practice??

You have to be a driving instructor to fully appreciate the difficulty in getting a new driver to change up and down the gearbox as rapidly as you do in the newer car. As an experienced driver you will hardly notice the difference.
