Exactly as canis has described. The Renault box changes gears much, much nicer than the Volvo box.

Worn bushes in the linkage are a common problem, but an easy fix. You will know when the bushes are worn as it will be difficult to engage reverse or first or possibly fifth. My old p1 with the Renault box did 370,00mls and gear changes still good and smooth. Two oil changes and about five sets of bushes in that time. Still getting used to the Volvo box in my P2.
