Dead easy compaired to a 1.2/1.41.6 or 2.0 petrol as its got a turbo and its diesel.
£600 on a 65hp model would get you about 110hp. You'd end up having to detune the torque as the clutch coundn't take the torque at the low end.
Tunning the petrol and disels isn't value for money though...
I've seen valvers for £500 and less in the past with 100k on them and Williams for £1.5k so £500 doens';t sound to bad (Howev thats what i'm saying you'd probably end up selling for put it up for more say £650.) You never people might bight your hand off if thats what there looking for.
Now that there are companies who can remaped the stock ECU out there I wouldn't bother with an SMT. A custom remap is about £350 ie cheaper than an SMT.
You cna buy them from the manurfacturer direct its south america I think a forum member used to have a mate working there might be worth a...
No idea of anyone else no point there are fine.
You need to talk to BenR on here £160 i think he charges I think he has them on exchange you take your manifold off stick one he's modied on and you get some more power. Tunning the engine isn't good value though.
They maybe able to sell your car for £2.8k then take away the fact they'll have to service it (say £150) clean it (£20) and Mot it (£50 say assuming nothing wrong) then they have to risk of keeping it oo the books for a few month (say worth £100) plus have to lose or buy 12 month new road fund...
Stock are fine unless they break.
If you want more power the intake manifold work for £160 is much better than any other mods I can think of (depends on the car though).
Its easy to service it yourself there aguide as to what Renault do here.

Spark plus are changed at 72k as they are good quality plugs. However some people have chnaged them earier and it made running and MPG a bit better but on the whole...
You called.
The dci is a great car assuming nothing goes wrong the engine so complex that it can be expensive to fix but for the fuel saving and knowing the issues the 1.2 etc have it wouldn't ever put me off.
One good test of there reliabilty is mine its been caned round most race circuits...
Assuming all thats ben done well you've got about the best value you cna get a 2.0 transplant would possible an option but its not going to be cheap and assuming you'rs is correctly done gains for money won't be good value.
£3995.
he posted some details yesterday (well a picture) its been up for sale for some time I think price was £4.5k from memory but thats going back gaes he has no need to sell the car I don't think.
The chassic could be bent you'd need to have to measured it doens't take much. When mine was crashed it had to go on the jigs it only went on as it was an insurance job a cheap bodge and noone would have known it was bent.
Check the tyres though for pressure.
Get the trackets checked by...

£3,995 with 34k...
Ha Ha he could always say he's got a cheap set of wheel litrally.
84k wouldn't ever put me off my cars on 71k now and its good as new if not better as its much quicker.
Did you look out the window?
Only £1k more than the one I posted. For £1k you could get a second hand engine and gearbox fitted..
Don't forget it might have low miles but its 6 years old so probably only done short drive which isn't good for an engine particulaly a petrol.
Look out your window see if I'm taking the piss .
Unless you have problems with stock I'd stick with them ds2500's are expensive and squeeky from cold.
£300 for rears isn't abnormal its say 1.5 hours labour at £70 an hour then pads are £40 list from memory and disk are £160 or so as they have pressed in bearing unlike the fronts.
Brakes...
