it depends where in the country you are & how much you wan to spend, some ppl drive miles for a service, others go to local specialists.

i may rip mine off my valver & sell it on there
(they are only 15.00 new from renault) well...
my car used to run a old T plate (private plate,suffix letter) and i had it on an F reg car (my old mint fiesta) the amount of ppl who used to go thats in well good nice for an old T reg car !!
they didnt think to look a the beginning letters of the plate, (CAT)
flaming donuts !!!
this looks like the same on there a while ago,
from memory it has a screw head in between the oil pressure dial & the speedo (god knows why though)
as for the 14k one, id rather have had strombas any day.
even sh*te number plates which dont appear to mean anything are up for lots of money,
even ones where you blatently have to add a screw head to the digits (you know what i mean) or have a w*nky font, to get them to look any thing like they are meant to !
1, had a kid on a bike put a lovely scratch on the read quarter panel
2, had it keyed (the b*stard didnt like blue cars & did 3 more down the rd)
3, had a bird in a spazo open her door into mine (while i was sat in it !!)
4, various small car park dents
5, two centre caps nicked - by some cnut...
williams have a suit carrier attached (the zip bag)
other than that they are the same, im not sure about the colours though (mines grey)
to be honest you could get a decent one from a scrappy for £10-20
or some one on here may have one, renault will prob want an arm & leg.
autotrader is good, but watch out for dogs, on here is good too,
its up to if you get a modded one, thing is if its modded, think of how they would have driven it, ie thrashed. Sure you could get a standard one which has been thrashed as well, but to be honest most valvers have !! as there is...
another thing i forgot to say, is that if you also look under williams, there will be a more detalied desciption of what to look for (they have the same body shell)
for 2.5k you should be able to get a good l/m reg one mate,
if you can get one with 60k on then good, however things can go wrong around that mileage, if you get one thats done more, then all of the things should have been done. if things do go wrong, they can be expensive!!
the buying...
elf trx, it think its called mate (it says in the handbook i think)
make sure you dont buy the one with trz, as its wrong,from memory its fully synthetic.
(the dopes in the 1st dealer i went to sold me the fully synt, but its the wrong one !)
i can never get the mag anywhere !
not even in smiths, sometimes the newsagents @ work has it.
on the occassions i do get to read it, its all peugeot !
(except for the clio/saxo/pug thrash a while ago)
either the standard one mate, or a williams one
(a willy one is colour coded & slightly bigger than the 16v one)
by e tech, i guess you mean one of those airplane wings?
if so, please dont put one on.
