Slipping clutch

[DAVIDOXE]

Just took the car for a spin this morning and im sure i had some clutch slip when giving her some gentle acceleration!
2009 4.7 20k miles. I have done 800 miles since i bought her from stratstones 3 months ago.
Where do i stand?

Hasn't your car spent more time with Stratsones possession than yours?

I had the car for 3 days then they had it for 3 weeks been back with me since.

Duly caressed.

Car has been in to Stratstone having a lock set fitted (it didnt come with the mechanical key) seat re call and clutch diagnosis.
Just had a call to say that it does need a clutch all parts ordered and they would be doing the work at no cost to me.

Thumbs up to Stratstone for not making an issue and going straight ahead with the work.

Am told by Richard at Stratstone that he has seen failures after 2000 miles and up to 70000 miles, its all down to use driving style.
This was a major debate when i had a Maserati, they were said to be weak but a pal of mine had a manual still going strong at 75000 miles and he used to give it terrible stick.
