Dont know if I really want to add to this! lol
Bought my '53' babe in April/May 2008, at 30k, now on 38k with 2 receipts for work done!
Have:
a) Alternator went
b) Towed to local garage, replaced at £350 ish (ouch)
a) All news disc & pads on back, just pads on front
b) Mates did that, general wear & tear so dont count that as a problem
a) Bonnet catch
b) Just cause I asked Renault too, no problem
a) Seat cable snapped in drivers seat, the bit that lets people in the back
b) Still not fixed, Renault claim I need a new seat at £601, so sourcing from scrapyards atm
a) Cambelt / Aux Belt
b) Cause i'd hit 5 years
Thats it. Done 1 service since I had her & 1 mot, but mot was free & 36k service done by my mate
