If fluid is black could that be a seal failing? I assume you are having to top the fluid up.
You may be able to top it up enough to drive it somewhere

I assume the black is from a failing seal, yes. When I bled it up last year it was a nice clutch again, back like when it was new. But the 2nd time, the week before last, it bled to a working state, but not very good. I might be able to bleed it to go to a local garage but I'd rather not risk it.

I've been in touch with a trader on here who can collect the car and fit the new clutch for a reasonable price. I was going to tax insure and MOT my bike for work, but I can hire a car for £80 so I've done that. Lucky I got a bonus this month!
