Ok, so two months ago I had my 2004 A4 Cabrio imported from the UK.

Everything was fine and I got it from a trusted seller [who apparently happens to be a personal friend].

So here I am now, around 4 thousand miles later [45k total] my car started shaking while steering. I took it to the official Audi dealers here and after just a small drive they proposed that the gearbox is broken and I need a new one.

They also stated that this is likely to cost aroudn 7000 pounds

Any ideas on the subject?
