Clutch shocker!

Si-monogram · 18th June 2016, 14:01

So, Victor the big 75 needs a whole new clutch. I rang my local garage, Clinton's in Kenilworth and they quoted me (without a flywheel) £1090!
A couple of years ago I had a clutch done on typhoon from fast fit clutches in Walsall, I decided to ring them thinking that with price rises etc, I'd end up paying more than I did......nope! Fast fit want £550 all in, same parts same labour. No idea where my garage have got double the price from but that's just outrageous!

It would be cheaper if you offer to give them the car!, go somewhere else, they are taking the ****

Had mine done by A1 Clutches, Digbeth, Birmingham a few weeks ago. Completed in about 4 hours, has to go back for 4 checks and comes with 18,000 mile or two year warranty.
All for just under £350.00
