Other night driving on the way home I got stuck behind a rather slow women going to overtake i dropped a gear and nothing happened except a lot of noise and not a lot of speed. So figured out that my clutch has finally given up on me. So my question is how long should it take me to replace. I have limited knowledge done basic servicing, changed my brake pad that sort of thing. As everything seems to needs to be doing as the same time insurance tax and now this saving on the cost of labour would make next month a whole lot easier for me as cheapest quote I have had is £300 minimum.

So been googling a little and everywhere seems to state it would take an amateur about a day which seems good if it means I can save more than a days wages part seems to be around £75 from europarts

So basically my questions are

1) Can I do it in a day.
2) Can one person do it or will I need assistance
3) Is there anything other than a jack. some axle stands a spanner set a socket set and a pry bar that ill need

Sorry its a lot of questions but cars are an interest of mine and I am fed up of spending up to £50 an hour labour on jobs that i might be able to do myself.
