^^^ How would ya know it's had a full respray unless the seller tells you ? Unless its a back street billy budget job and its obvious that the finish isn't perfect .
Your posts a bit confusing ,Respraying a V6 255 . Are you definitely gonna get it resprayed or does it depend on what colour you can find ? Oh yeah , and the Illiad blue is a very common colour for the vee . I must see at least half a dozen a day , everyday , lol . And why the fcuk you'd want to...
Mine goes up every year . I play them off against each other and got the renewal quote dropped by £200 ;)
Thye do it in the hope that people just accept their renewal quote , more profit for them .
Ring round /check the net for a cheaper quote and see if they will price match , thats if you want to stay with them .

Looks like he's not in a rush for the bellmouth as he never posted back . Always baffles me when people ask a question then you never hear from them again :S
If your only touching up small stone chips you won't need the lacquer that you get with the Renault touch up paint . Its better to have an aerosol and spray a little into the lid and use a c0cktail stick as in the guide i posted above . Build up in layers , leave to dry , wet sand and polish up...
If you lean right over and look into the top of the res you should be able to see the fluid , if you can't just top it up til you can .
If you've got an engine cover on you'll need to remove it to gain access to the reservoir .
Like Gareth says . Worn brake pads causes your brake fluid to drop bringing on the brake and stop light . Check your pads if there is still plenty left on them top up your brake fluid reservoir . Here's a pic of where to find the brake fluid res . Take care not to spill any if you do top it up ...
^^^ Its not something i would buy personally . But as long as the discs and pads are in good useable condition and don't really see a problem , especially if your on a tight budget .
And tbh buying second hand calipers can be a gamble as you can't see the condition of the inside of the caliper .
The touch up paint is very thick . I prefer to get an aerosol made up at a local motor accessory place and use a c0cktail stick . It costs slightly less than the touch up paint and you get alot more . Only one chip ? I washed mine yesterday and there's loads of tiny little chips that need...
I've never been asked for proof of my NCD . I guess the only way would be for you to conact your previous insurers as they'll still have your details and ask them to send you proof .

Mine goes up every year mate . The insurance companies are banking on people just renewing and paying the extra . I always ring round ( internet quotes ) lots of different companies and play them off against each other then when i get a quote that sounds reasonable i get back onto my insurance...
Thats exactly what i thought . Even if the airbox / enclosure gets hot the airflow is so fast it would have be superheated to actually heat the incoming cold air .As long as the airfilter isn't exposed to the hot engine bay and there is a good cold air feed then i can't see any problems .
