Not TOO far for me, and a easy drive down the M1, Mots sept 7th so that may decide what happens, need to get a new clutch asap.

how have you worn out that clutch? we can't have had more than three days this year when it hasn't rained!!
good luck with the mot. something tells me you won't have too much trouble. hoping to have sold mine before thinking about mot time in november.

The clutch has needed changing since I bought it really as the bites quite high up and unless its fully depressed will crunch, Its the original so is 28 years old. Just need to find one now for sensible money.

it's done reasonably well then!!
ebay is good for clutches. an ordinary one can be picked up for as little as £30 (three piece kit.)
or you could go for the fancy two piece one which is anything upwards of £300!!!
your call. mind you, with all these sundays you seem to be working you could probably stretch to the £300 one...... Wink
