well i was not gonna post it on here and advertise for everyone to see, want it for my ph2 of course lol, tell them all on here and bang thats a good few renault owners all thinking, yes mate, i could do with that.
And as i've had TWO of them split on me in less than a week (my ph2 is now running on roger red hat's spare clio's expansion tank) i thought i would treat the ph2 to a nice new clean bottle.

no offence to anyone on here of course but ebay is dog eat dog lol.

well the 1st one the seam cracked, it split from the cap down.
the 2nd one developed a pinhole leak on the way up the M1 last saturday which slowly expanded into a crack also down the seam. Just due to age of them i guess.

Funnily enough i had asked roger to bring along his clio's spare expansion tank cos i wanted it for my ph1 (after having taken the one off the ph1 to put on my ph2), so we swapped out the expansion tank at the same time neal was having problems getting his chammy started in nottingham services on the M1 (hence why my bonnet is also up in the pics)
