Hmmm a smidge of hope then :-) I also looked at a 45k car with an original clutch biting point was not so high but a fair bit stiffer , I will put a bit of cash by and see what happens .... The garage next to my workshop services and repairs all the a Silverstone track day Vantages and does there clutches every 5-10k miles So very experienced and know what they are doing and will do me a good deal about £600 labour plus clutch about £1100 , I also noticed Appleby only 6 miles from me do just a clutch plate change for £1200 , but my garage reckon they would recommend the cover and Thrust bearing but rarely change the Fly wheel on the track cars .

All good news to my ears , I tried the 50mph clutch test seems fine !
Noticed David Appleby do just a clutch plate fitting for £1000 plus Vat
But the guys next door reckon it's false economy not to do the thrust bearing ! Although interestingly they don't normally change the flywheel !
But then hopefully I won't need one for a bit .......... :-)
