Tyre wear plus clutch wear on Vantage

[Citrus7]

In negotiation re a V8 Vantage from AM dealer and noted the tyre tread depth for both front tyres as :-

Outer 4mm
Middle 6mm
Inner 3mm

1) Is this spread of wear normal across a tyre ?

2) Also the pre check on car has engineer listing the clutch pedal as high in his opinion. This is a 6 yr old manual with 13k miles. Can the clutch pedal be altered for height, or am I right in believing this could indicate a clutch that is somewhat worn ?

3) Also noted rear pads were showing as 50-60% worn, yet had been replaced only 2.5k miles ago...is this normal wear ?

4) Lastly there was a mention of a slight prv noise at startup. Sound a familiar problem ?

Thanks in advance , Dave

The clutch is worth getting checked as the life varies - some get 10K miles and some get 40K+ miles. Depends on how it has been used.

Is there a way to measure clutch wear on a manual car ? Assume only way is to drive and feel how far biting point is off top of clutch pedal travel ?

Yeah problem is I'm looking to use car as daily hack, so will be putting 15k miles on a year.

Seems I may need to continue my search.

Agreed a discount on everything be ok with car, before known condition of said items. Have decided to walk from this one and keep looking.

Thanks for advice as ever.
