yup. Every engine part is has a Renault part number! What do you not like about yours Andy?
Gearbox is crap....mine was done before i bought it but apparently there renowned for braking.
Exhaust sensor went... £160
Slave cylinder went and needed new clutch. .. £350
Wiper motor went £120
Just seem to always be waiting for the next thing to brake. They don't seem to be very reliable. ...could just be I got the Friday afternoon van but not very impressed with it..

6k ono Marc. Tons of repairs. Professionalily carpet lined rear with six ceiling spots and has 18" alloys, side bars and rear spoiler, sude window, all done just over a year ago.fully color coded and reverse sensors, electric windows and cd. Also has non slip rubber mat on rear floor Looks mint but it will be ruined if I keep using it for plastering. I bought it for mountain biking first and tiling\plastering second but I now find tiling\plastering took over my time so I need something more commcial. 147k on clock

That's why I'm going new. I added up over the past 2 years what I have paid out in mot's, repairs (incl injectors!!!), depreciation and jobs lost with van being in garage and it's more or less the cost of a new van per month! Offset it all on tax with HMRC and it's a no brainer really
You vat regesitard Geoff. .
