i put it in my garage, thats level and ive put it in first gear! i can drive it to the nearest garage i think! the cable that snapped is the one that goes from hub to hub, its snapped at one end! it was lying on the ground so iv tied it up against the rear axle so it dont drag along the ground when driving! how much will it cost me roughly?

Havent got a clue mate but would be alot cheaper to do it yourself and if the rear axel is anything like nova's (which i think it is) would only take about half an hour to to once uve got the cable.
