Why if the engine starts do you keep the starter turning over on the starter? Or an I reading that wrong?
Sounds like the TDC sensor though at fault. Common fault.
Yep you have to pay the excess upto the maximum value. IE if you have a £500 excess and the damage costs £400 to fix you have to pay £400 if the damage is £1k you only pay £500 the insurance pays the rest.
You should do it ASAP. they'll otherwsie suspect you've had another accident.
See if you can reuse the ones form your old disks. You can buy the rings seperate but this is why you pay more money for proper rear disks as they come with the rings.
There were reputed although I've never seen onto to be some early phase 2's which have speedo sensors on them sounds like you might have one of those specail ones. Unless you have a cup that is in which case you should do.
Only one place it gets speed form either the box or ABS system hence...

ha ha if you think brakes diffiult you've got a nothing else to comapire with
Gear oil is on the front of the gearbox facing the radiator there a little butterly nut on it fill the box up so it takes no more oil.
The replacmetn ECU is just an ECU with new maps for more fueling and advance etc its not uprated.
Samefor all the remaps there just different maps for the cars ECU they won't fix an engine problem.
Ring Renault specialist breakers in accrington and ask for matt he sell all the stuff you need.
A transplant like this isn't exactly new though been done before.
Stock stock pads will last longer though thatn 4 laps even with some abuse.
Although real working the brakes with good tyres and you'll have near enough faded ds2500's
Carbon loranisn I woulnd't recomend they wrech the paint and make a heck of a lot of noise.
I'd keep with stock if...
I assume where on about phase 1 cars here as there the only ones which (bar the cups and some reputed early phase 2's) have the speedo sensor on the box. The sensor can come loose the wires go earth themselves or bad eaths etc same for the reversing sensor.
You need the switch for the rear...
That will be fitted its about 50 minutes work at say £60 an hour and the parts are about £25 from Renault can get them cheaper you shopuld be using the 172 pads so there easy and cheap from Halfords etc.
