They are a good daily personally, mine has been on track days long distances etc. Service he car a lot more regularly than what they ask and spark plugs are around £90 in most places but Renault sell them for £40. The Halford recommended will not work and will cause a horrible misfire.

If you get chance to remap do it, I drove a remapped one and it was better on fuel and pick up was awesome (130bhp remap) Wow 30bhp jump and better on fuel!! Well... its a works one on 09 plate, 21 thousand miles... is due a cambelt time wise but obviously not mileage wise.. but i can have it for £2500... id be stupid to say no wouldnt i?

sounds like a good price, mines on 70+k now, its a little ropey but its been driven hard and used as a work horse, my mum has one as well 09 plate and 10k on the clock and hers is still pristine.

You'd be stupid not to get it and then buy a real car with the £2k profit from selling it.. On 11th Feb, 2015 robert said:

the engine is very surprising.. definitely lives up to the ''torque of 1.6 power of a 1.4 with running costs of 1.2'' that they say.. I love the lil 1.2 turbo engine!| Page: |
