The driven plate wasn't in too bad a condition for a nine year old clutch (48k).

I will inform the garage but I don't expect any joy as they had two previous chances to fix it before I bought it and didn't! Life is too short for hassle but I'll give them a chance as I haven't left a review for them yet!!!
Now that it is fixed, I am enjoying the Sportage. It's roomy, comfy and easy to get in and out of. Nothing like the ride of the Rover but hey-ho, needs must! The fuel needle hardly moves at all and it will move if you let it sing to the turbo!

Hi Mike.
Nice to hear you are now pleased with the Sportage, but yes let them know, ask at the same time if they are willing as a good gesture to meet you half way with the cost, that is better than lets say trying to demand a the full cost and gives you a nice point on the conversation.
Do mention that you have not yet left your intended feed back and in the future would like to be able to recommend them to friend and family
