Just thinking, if Renault had it on Clip, will they have the results of my CAN test from when they had it in for Diagnostics?!
if so I'll call them up and get the results and forward them onto you
If you're that confident Mick you're welcome to buy it cheap and fix it up yourself............. you'd need to arrange collection!
inbox me if you're interested!
however it will have bent valves and the head will likely be fubar'd as well as still having this starting issue, but the price will...
The engine will live on in the 182 Mick and there may still be hope for the 172 becoming a runner eventually!
would you say it's wiring loom related or engine/sensor as a gut feeling Mick?!
tbh, if you wasn't 2hrs each way and what with needing to hire a trailer it would of came to you...
Is be pissed at such a misleading advert and dishonesty if I was taking a whole day off (£220) plus fuel (£60) to see a shed!!
£3k+ it would want to be absolutely mint or a highly desirable special paint (read as LY)
£600 service?! Where?! I did belts, oils, head gasket, dephaser for sub £400...

Actually, this is what I was informed by my mate fiance when i looked into buying a Cat C M3 4 months back and she works for a popular insurer!
Post below proves my point!!
If it was just 'outer wing, bumper bonnet and suspension arm' it would of been Cat D.........Chassis arm and inner wing...
OP's problem if definetely hazing and not condensation........... He's my brother!
Ive got the machine poilishers, wet and dry and all the polish's you need to sort these bruv! I need to do mine now as ive got it back out of storage again yesterday!
CAT C................ Structual/Chassis damage!
CAT D........... Is beyond economical repair and usually just cosmetic
It was written off as a CAT C in 2007 and VIC checked in 2008........... What else do you need to know?!
