I have a ebay gift voucher and I am about to buy some things for my car and I was just wondering if someone could tell me if what I am buying will be suitable for the car.

Renault Clio Campus 1.1 56 REG

I am looking at really fixing up the car, service wise as none of the above have been done to the car. Is there anything else parts wise that I could buy from ebay also?

many thanks guys

    The brake pads, air filter, fuel filter, and crank sensor are for a newer Clio, so don't appear to be suitable for you.

    The others look to be correct for your year of car.

    Be careful. Lots of fake parts on ebay..

    Goto a local motor factors. They will usually beat ebay prices. Not paying for postage.

    The French cars I've owned always seem to have several options or sizes for the same model when it comes to brakes. Buy them local as they cost a fortune to post back if they won't fit.

    Try the prices at "Brakes international" website. They sell OEM quality at very low prices, and you can put your registration in to ensure that the parts are correct for the car. I wouldn't get brake parts off of ebay, very cheap discs and pads aren't worth having. It's a safety critical components, so at least ensure they meet the correct specification.

    It's unlikely that they will accept the Ebay gift voucher though...
