Love to here the eventual conversation with the insurance company. You might as well gift wrap the car for a thief. Wouldn't even have to bother with locks, just knock the window in, cars running, away you go.

If getting the cambelt done, make sure the garage has the special renault tool.

Sure it's uber-quick, and great to drive. But I could never be seen driving something like that.

Re: Best Hot Hatch of all time? Ridiculous list, no Trophy FFS! For me, the V6, Integrale, R32, are all a class above hot hatches anyway.

I personally think we should leave deposits with Henk, then pay the balance once all 30 have been recieved. I can't see it happening if he wants it all from one person, seems unreasonable to leave one person with over £5k.

IMO, DS2500's are more than adequate for road/track use. Carbon Lorraine's get mixed reviews, couldn't comment on the ds3000's.

I imagine the simplest thing would be a deposit to Henk, then remainder when the unit's are in stock. Be good to know a timescale for when we can expect delivery.

Had mine replaced by Birchdown, £175 all in. Top job.

£175 at birchdown for aux belt kit replacment.

Looks ok. If the cars warm, change up at about 6.5k. If the cars cold, the rev limit will be lower than usual.

Dedication!! Here's my Monaco after he'd worked his magic http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=334914&highlight=monaco

Pm Jay. He's based near Birmingham, detailed my monaco 172, great results. He'll show you where they remodelled his garage so he could fit a vee in!!

£450 now, or £1k++ if the belts go.

Yep, you can see the belt, pulley, tensioner from underneath.

I think it was changed to an inspectioin rather than a def change. Stupid IMO. You're coming up to cambelt time, so I'd bite the bullet and get them both done, Birchdown are only an hour from you. www.birchdown.com

Yes you can see the belt. IIRC, it will need the aux belt done as part of the service. I had mine changed recently, due to a faulty tensioner, approx £175.

Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project Hope this is ready for oulton. I want a ride!

I don't see ph1 vee prices holding up as well as ph2's. If I was in the market for a vee, I wouldn't even consider a ph1.

10-15% worse. Ave 27-28mpg from what I've read from owners.

Gallardo ftw tbqfh

I'd want 1k plus his car. His is worth 9kIMO. http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/831014.htm

£440

Is yours a mk1 or mk2? The mk1's are meant to be better.

Thats why I'll never get cheap coilovers.

No idea on cost. Have a search in the guide section, try adjusting the switch first, might be fixable that way.

Go to a specialist, not a renault dealer

Yep, the cruise is de-activated by touching the brake pedal, if the switch is broken, this happens.

Brake switch, behind the brake pedal. Mine went, was replaced under warranty. Not a big/hard job, I think you could just try adjusting it (look in the guide's section)
