Hi guys,
That's right, the Aisin boxes are meant to be pretty reliable and many independent gearbox specialists around the country are quite willing to work on AW gearboxes. Saab, Vauxhall and Volvo specialists/garages are also often happy to check out issues with Vel Satis gearboxes.
Re the Vel Satis on Autotrader for nearly £8k, I also saw it and thought "Wow, that's too much", but you never know, it may be an optimistic seller/garage hoping to get around that price after all! Hopefully it's a typo though! Some of the 3.5 V6 petrol Vel Sati on Autotrader at the moment are priced so low it's tempting, and many have got low mileages, but they're 2002 models. Hmm.

I'm going to be in Vel Satis heaven...
