About double what you've just paid for the car, however it will be nice once done

Excellent stuff, just make sure you use decent quality parts, it's not a job you will want to repeat in a hurry

Long await finally had clutch done the flywheel was knackered aswell with cracks in the face and too much play so he replaced with a known good used one. Clutch had nothing left on friction plate of it even though it had been replaced previously going by springs in clutch plate he used an AP clutch 2 part kit and a valeo slave cylinder

Cost £360 all in
