Having just read and replied to another thread its got me wondering, just how many miles will a clutch do as an average in either 360 or 430 manual, it would be interesting to hear others experiences here. Allowing for say an average well driven cared for example. Mike

My last 360 had a clutch in 2005 at 9,000 miles. It got written off earlier this year with 38k on the clock and the clutch was still going strong with a nice crisp take up - I make that 29,000 miles on one clutch. Driven considerately they will last.

My car has 27,000 on the clock and I don't remember seeing any reference to a new clutch in the history file.

It depends on the driver.

2006 F430 Bought with 15k on the clock on 1st clutch from main dealer.
Dealer pre sale inspection said 50% clutch left.
I've done 4k miles and no indications of a change required yet at 19k.

40-50,000 miles on a manual if treated gently yes

2000 360F1. 1st clutch change during prep for sale at 23k. Now at 32.5k and showing 31% worn. It totally depends on how and where they're driven.
