Took a trip over to Caffeine and Machine with Renaultsport Wiltshire club. Car ran sweet as a nut, all the noises have gone so the brake clean and handbrake reset seem to have worked well. Covered 80+ miles, cruises around nicely at 50mph everywhere. I do have an issue I think. A small one, I've lost some coolant again, though I'm not currently sure where it is going
::)



here have some pics

I have managed to get hold of a 1397cc engine very locally and for a good price. The plan is to get it fitted to the 8 over winter. The engine is very clean inside and seems well maintained, 60k on the clock and from an auto R5 so hopefully its had an easy life.
