102k on mine still original as far as I know, I changed the engine in my car a month before I bought it and tried to talk my mate into fitting a new clutch but he didn't want to spend the cash, wish I had just paid for it myself now haha
I know what you mean, as if this heat wave we are having isn't causing me enough sleeping problems.
I got this price from adam last week
hub £114 inc vat per side they come bare with no bearing.
bearing £55.69 inc vat per side
hope that helps!
None of my local dealers are getting demonstrators its shocking, they tell me it has launch control and does 0-60 in 4.5 seconds yet no demo car lol booking a test drive for my week off in the fiesta.
because Renault spend a considerable amount developing the bushes for the car, and when new the cars drive brilliantly so that's how I wanted it to drive :)

looks like a good runabout, I prefer small turbo petrols to diesels, I don't do massive miles anyway, I wouldn't pay anything near that for one. im sure when I bought my GT DCi mk3 with every option bar sat nav ticked it cost me just under £15k, this is 5k more expensive!!
my 200 had started to do this very slightly not as bad as yours, i had it from new until it was 10 months old, there was various other paint defects such as runs on the bottom of the passengers wing etc.
i had enough bother with it mechanically to even attempt to get the paint work sorted, hence...
had a look around a liquid yellow one in my local dealers, guy came over briefly told me that it has launch control does 0-60mph in 4.2 seconds and they aren't getting a demo in, neither is any of the Arnold clarks in this area, if I want one I need to buy one lol No thanks!
something odd I found today, im looking for a car for my mrs as she passed her test this week, she wants something nice I want something reliable but fun for me to use too occasionally, anyway one of the cars we were looking at was a corsa VXR. done an insurance quote on a 2007 one and it was...
for me 182 manifold with ktec decat link pipe, matched inlets and RS tuner map are all mods ive been most happy with! shame my current clio has none of them yet lol
