My Twingo is being serviced this weekend and I want to get the parts before it goes to the garage. What exactly is required/recommended at this age/mileage of the car? (58 reg GT, 24k miles)

I used these, 5W-40 Fully synthetic oil, oil filter & washer, cabin filter, spark plugs and i changed the brake discs, pads and fluid but you dont have to. I didn't need to change my air filter as i have a bmc one so i just gave it a clean.

I reccomend millers nano drive, used that on my GT and it ran silky smooth.

worth keeping in mind that any Renault parts supplied by yourself wont come with the 12 months parts warranty if not supplied and fitted by the garage.

If supplied and fitted by a garage you'll be paying out of your arse for something that is simple to do.

not really, if the garage are supplying at trade price, which most will do unless they are a rip off, meaning they will charge you what you would pay or less than you would pay sourcing yourself anyway
only reason I mention it is I had a mate with a 172 who had his timing belt replaced by a garage, aux belt tensioner let go 2 months later and took the cambelt out, Renault weren't interested because the parts weren't supplied by the garage, had they been his engine would have been replaced by Renault free of charge!

Supplied my own parts and in total for parts and service I paid £150 when my GT got serviced.
Got everything except oil from Karl and went to opie oils to get millers nano drive.
