I don't normally venture in here, as generally im pretty useless at cleaning cars, but Duf's paintwork needs a spuce up, so here I am!
Please excuse my total Noob approach here, as I have never done anything more than have a play around with a machine polisher - I know that not knowing what...
Only some cosmetic bits, wheels, few interior trims, just made more sense to buy this one (which has a few bits on it I need) than trawl around looking for a load of bits individually, plus all my bits that are going back on from Duf are still perfectly usable, so it will make a good little...
Agree with Dan, if it released a huge chunk of power then it would be worth it, but 90% of what is felt is placebo effect as it's slightly louder, plus because you have made a change you are looking to find a difference.

It's more expensive than a proper Renaultsport - as what everyone has said, avoid and actually buy a real one for less money.
Unless your mate only wants it to insure it as a 1.2........Which I hope isn't the case
The gearbox will fit on, but as far as im aware there is no way of running the dash off the abs sensor, unless you run an aftermarket dash, then a speedo pick up off the driveshaft would be easy.
Bear in mind if you get a 172 cup gearbox, they use speedo drive, and have different ratios to the...
Speak to Tom from wests mate, im sure he could do you decent discount - its been 2 years or so since i last bought some, but i think they were about 30 quid a side
