R56 Mini Cooper S Clutch - High Biting Point

[gregives]

Hi All!

I bought my Cooper S about 9 months ago and I've been loving it ever since! I've noticed lately through driving other cars for work etc. that my clutch bites quite high in its travel. The car has only done 49k and I've hardly been giving it a hard time, most of it's time with me has just been pootling to and from work along A-roads.

Is it normal for the clutch to fail at such a low mileage?

For reference, it's a 2008 car and I've covered about 5k in it.

That's put my mind at ease, at least there's probably nothing wrong with it.

I can go back to looking at go faster bits again not clutch kits!
