The best impartial place to take your car is a council depot test centre, they charge the full whack (well in Edinburgh they do) but they dont have any incentive to fail your car etc as they can not carry out the repair. so they can only test it.

As said - give Renault UK a call, there is loads of 197's with the same problems so they cant turn round and say they dont know nowt is wrong with them! nothing to lose really.
