Under £50?! Cam belt kit, alternator belt, water pump, coolant....

Looks wicked mate! I really need to just get the Cambelt done on mine. It's 2 years over due! And a new dog bone mount/4th engine mount. The movement is comical.

Sanded and Polished the headlights, and machine polished a scratch off the door. Re-dyed the carpets black. No expense spared on this old girl!

This. A set of plain plates off eBay, including all fixings, are £10.99 delivered. Sack paying £32 just because the front one is 8mm shorter.

I had 3 as company cars. The diesel was 'alright' but the other two were dog s**t. Especially the 1.6 petrol, holy f**k that was a dreadful car.

I can't. It's not fair on the owner.

Words simply cannot describe my utter hatred and disgust with these cars.

Or just jack up the other side??

Oh and his son is a champion kart driver, obviously runs in the family!

I've no idea mate. Knowing him, full asking price. If he wants something, he just gets it. And he's a Fcuking awesome driver too. Makes me sick.

Gutted. My mate bought this. Git. To go along with his Evo and his zx12 powered kit car. Fml.

Have you pulled the piston all the way out on the shock??

Fitted new sidelight bulbs as the ones that were in it were proper old and cack. Fitted some osram headlight bulbs that I had lying around. Not amazing but better than the guff that was in there. I'm just having a poo then I'll go out and make a start on the minging drivers seat and swap the...

If there is 5L I'm there, the dipstick wouldn't be on minimum.

Oh ok so it's just a case of adjusting the tensioner to suit? I can't imagine that's common practice given that head gaskets never go on these? I'd also imagine that There are rover 1.8 tensioners actually made to fit with a skimmed head! Lol.

There's nothing to be puzzled about dude! It hasn't got low oil pressure so won't kick the light on. But as a precaution, top it up to max and check it daily. (Is there a parrot in here?? Lol£

What's puzzling? The only warning light you'll get is a low oil pressure light. If that light comes on, 99 times out of 100 the damage is done. Prevention is better than cure so just top it up and check it daily.

If you get a warning light it's too late anyway the damage is done! Warning light is bad! Lol Just top it up to max today, drive it for a bit, check it again later on. I certainly wouldn't faff about draining it again.

Is the car on completely flat ground?? I've never had to put more that the quoted 5.1L in so it does seem odd. My old Merc sprinter used to hold 8.5 litres but I always had to put 9L in it to get it to maximum.

That's proper cool!!

I've just done one funnily enough! Disconnected the battery, removed old parts one at a time, replacing as I went, reconnected battery and that was it. Didn't take very long either.

You'll know the answer to this... Doesn't a head skim muck up the timing on these?? OP, your car has done 58k not 158k. Just do belts, water pump and dephaser. Spend the rest on some decent tyres and go and enjoy it on track.

Needs a gearbox rebuild. Common fault on the mk3 renaultsports sadly. Is it under any form of warranty at all @Gemmaa200 ?

That's business insurance though, not 'traders' insurance.

So yeah, cool as f**k! Lol

Where do you work and what do you do? It looks cool as f**k.

My trade policy was £1,800 a year and covered road risk only. No theft or anything like that. I was insured to drive anybody else's car up to £20k and personal cars up to £10k. Unless you're actually trading and need trade insurance, it will always be cheaper to insure it normally. That's...

Or a previous owner of your car has changed the hubs? But yes, you are right. With the pint of times these cars change hands/get modified, the only 100% way to tell is to measure the bolt centres.

Ring Renault, give reg, buy correct part. Bish bash bosh.
