How long were you trying to bleed it for? And how long was the caliper off the car and did you try and block off the brake line when the old caliper was off?
Gunson eesibleed from Halfords would be a good start. leave that to do its thing and you should be getting brake fluid coming out.
Jack up the rear beam, have the jack in the middle of the rear beam. Get two axle stands to put on the rear jacking points. Lower the jack on the rear beam so the rear of the car sits on the axle stands.
Now use the jack, still on the rear beam to take the slack on the rear beam. loosen the...
If it's a daily and won't be used for track then Halfords enamel spray paint is great. It gives a nice powdercoated gloss look, it's great as dust and dirt cleans off it easily.
Make sure you wirewheel the crap off the caliper first and get it nice and clean before painting.
Its a lovely car and doubt you would lose any money buying it.
Here are the 2 previous for sale adverts for this car:

Yeah that isnt Liquid yellow or Alien green which is a shame. Renault used to be great with decent paint colours.
Anyone know what sort of performance these R5's have? I tried looking but couldnt find anything. I suspect this is just a Zoe with different body.
Looking closer - the Type E LDR only has a 3 year shelf life compared to 8 or 10 for type D. This is a piss take - the LDR is going straight back to Arnold Clark.
This is LDR:
Dont buy coolant from my Arnold Clark link in this thread, the b******s have sent me 2x Type E LDR coolant despite me asking them to double heck it was Type D they were sending.
I'm the same, I just really like the type d so will get a couple of bottles to tide me over a decade. I'm sure there are other coolants that are just as good but it's easier just to use the same type d on all 3 of my clios, the colour is lush too.
What colour was the coolant Marc ? Is it still yellow or has it changed to green now?
Good to see the 2x5L I bought today is the same part number as your sheet.
Always great when you update your thread. Absolutely stunning car btw.
Id never heard of a renault option for the Oz ultras either. Such a nice designed wheel and so light too. Bet they were expensive.
Looks like renault are phasing out the Type D coolant which is a shame as I love the bright yellow colour.
I managed to get 2x5L from here:

The renault stop start system is a bit confusing. These are the 2 messages:
Stop start not available - could be lots of things, temperature outside, battery, are the fans in the car on etc....
Check Stop Start - this is 99% of the time down to not having the seatbelt on before turning the car...
