4k rattle and a new centre section on zorst.

LHS engine mount has been replaced about 6 times and a gearbox mount once.
The biggest problems are the tyres, discs and pads seen to have some sort of premature ageing thing going on and me fugging licence keeps FROing to get convictions put on it.

2002 52 plate 172 Cup on 17753 miles.
Apart from the regular rattles and squeeks its been back to Renault for front strut turret mods to stop that full lock grinding and a windscreen seal that had perished.
Possibly heatshield rattle or centre section is only real cause for concern at this moment in time!

2002 1.2 16v just under 120,000 miles in just under 4 years
all thats been replaced apart from the service items such as pads, disks, filters etc is the coil pack.
sun roof is the only part that rattles (and lowered 60mm its hardly the softest suspension!)
and with all they miles it pulls better than ever, think the inspectors were in the day mine was built lol

2002 1.2 16v expression did 16k in mine no problems at all went in for 1 service in that time and for the suspension recall and that was it. was sold with 16k on it at 3yrs old.
Only things i replaced was 1 punctured tyre that had been run flat for a short time when my dad borrowed it and a set of wiper blades.
Best car i had ever owned cant say the same about my new one unfortunately moved to a Citroen C4 and since november had 2 recalls and numerous other small things replaced and various rattles cured. Still love the car though.
