Kwik Fit :- Where do i stand?

Not a problem, my reply was slightly sarcastic I'll admit but apologies if it came across a little bit off.

That's the info we need - as soon as you mentioned bolts I immediately thought VAG (as they secure a lot of driveshafts this way). If they've come out over this period of time, I'd be tempted to take it further - it's not a common fault for the bolts to just come out so it must have been improper installation by Kwik Fit.

Proving it is another thing though - but I think if you pushed it far enough they'd see sense and repair it for you. I can in no way see how they would not be responsible.

No worries on the sarcasm it made me smile under the current circumstances,
As for pushing it i have sent a letter that consumer direct have given me as a template and asked me to fill in (recorded delivery) stating the supply of goods and services act 1982 so we will see but i think they may still kick this all the way to court due to the cost to repair the gearbox that has been caused by the driveshaft falling out

Still thanks again for the input its great to get some impartial advice from people
