Clutch replacement

The manual Sov is at the garage at the moment having a new clutch fitted amongst other things. It's been on the way out since I bought it, the biting point was high on the pedal and there's been a slight juddering feel. I think it was slipping slightly under certain conditions at lower rev's but recently it was slipping more obviously and making various noises.

I've always tried to do all the work on my XJ40's myself, this is the first time I've taken one to garage for anything other than an MOT. I probably could have tackled it at home but it would have been a lot of work with the car up on stands and I'm keen to get her driving well. I asked around for a few quotes, the best I received was £350 from Mr Clutch so that's where she is.

The work is underway and almost complete now, I should be able to pick the car up today. I've been told that it needed a flywheel skim plus a new spigot bearing and slave cylinder so the price of the job has certainly added up! I've also asked them to change the gearbox oil while their in there. I'm really looking forward to driving the car once I get it back.

I've pictured my other XJ40, she looks well in British Racing Green with gold coachlines. This one doesn't cost as much to run!
