yep. first you will need a gallon of petrol, then you need to purchase a box of matches.

pour petrol over renault & then gently throw a lit match at the fuel covered vehicle & run like feck.

Job done

After running a cleaner through the cooling system (as advised by LezT) today I flushed it out and put new coolant in. Decided to do oil and filters while I had the bash plates off. Job well done I'd say.
