yup, enjoyed reading that, good to see time effort and some money being invested in these at last, should push prices up in the long run!

can i just ask, why did you decide on another ph2? thought you might have tried a ph1 after the experiences with the black one

just preference?

Availability really, Right time Right Price. Once I get this one finished and shot of the black one I'll be on the look out for a Tungsten Grey Ph1

There was one for sale about a mile from me but the timing was all wrong

From the local Renault dealer for a stupidly high price, the parts guy knocked £75 off it for me though but still cost a bomb.

Best tip with a old Renault is never lock the toolbox up.

Well that was back in the day before I went ebay mad, In fact the car was the first thing I ever bid on with ebay. Also never suspected I'd see so many 16v parts on there.

But the positive in buying from the dealer is that I know it's brand new

Well the little shit hasn't picked it up yet. Guess he found something a bit more Chav. Not bothered about the money, I just want shot of it. Hell if one of you guys lived near here I'd give it away for parts as I can't be arsed Breaking it now.
