The next owner will only need to tax it, there’s nothing left to do.
I`ve just managed to spend £370 on new rear braided hoses ( £35 ) ( the old flexi`s were showing signs of age related degradation ), 2 new rear calipers as I
had one with a split piston boot ( noticed last time I changed the pads ) and considered buying 2 new ones complete for £98 was preferable to the hassle of rebuilding the old ones.
I attempted to fit the new calipers this week,, but found the nuts of the rear brake hoses were corroded to the pipes, so another £70 there.
The plastic sleeves of the inner handbrake cables were crumbling on inspection, so another £54 for OE, and as the rear disc assemblies that I replace £39k miles ago are showing wear, so make a proper job of it, and replace them too, £102 OE.
Throw in some pads & a bit of carriage, and there you have it.
All the old kit is still functioning, but I look at it as forward maintenance which I hope to reap the benefit of, if the grim reaper doesn`t get me 1st.
Hopes to complete fitment on Tuesday.
Thanks to RPD, Wolverhampton Renault & Kam Racing for supply of parts within days.
Note to @RPD, if you were more enthusiastic about answering the phone, you could have had some of the business that went elsewhere.
