Superb, I didn't actually expect you to post the pictures up, doesn't look like the closing speed on that collision was very fast - lucky really. Hope you didn't get any serious injuries.
I can't really help you with choosing a lower spec I'm afraid, since the mk1 I have only owned RenaultSport...
Bullshit, the OP doesn't want to take it to the stealer because there is nothing wrong with it. He just wants to know if his kidnapping victims will be able to escape when he stops at a set of lights ;)
Slightly black spots should just be soot from inside the exhaust mixing with the condensation and when you put your foot down it sprays some of this out the back.
If it is thick black then it sounds like you have problems.
Does it do it all the time or just when the exhaust is cold?

If they didn't want to know about the second gearbox being faulty you should send them the bill for your new box from renault. Give them 28 days to pay or you will take action through the county court. Will cost you ~ £60 to take it to court and they probably wont even turn up so it will be...
Tape it to the glass/put a microfibre cloth underneath it. I hope you have business use on your insurance as well, could be quite an expensive day otherwise ;)
Ah right sorry :o, then I would suggest something like a TOAD Ai606, < £100 for the basic version (which is still one of the best alarms going) or ~£250 for one that will text you with information about an alarm being triggered.
