I got a quote for a new clutch (between ?400-500) this is from Dulwich Test & Service Centre on Hindmans Road. I normally go there and think they give a fair deal. He said I should try one of the big Clutch Replacement Service Centres where I might get a better quote. Does anyone know what a fair price is for a new Clutch I have no idea. My car's an old banged up '96 ford mondeo

Thanks for your advice

Difficult to know for sure but I recently had an aircon pipe replaced by them. The bill was ?400 of which ?150 was labour. Their labour charge is ?50/hr +vat but I know for a fact that it took longer. VW garage quoted ?560 for the same work.


Banged up or not the parts may be expensive and you are looking at at least 2 hours labour. A Spec**list clutch place may well do it cheaper as they would have a more specific supply chain.

It's just one of those things you have to stump up for. Sadly....

I shall try South London Clutch Centre for a quote, I've got that hard decision as it's due it's MOT and a needs a new clutch an I don't know whether to get a new car or spend approx ?600 (including MOT) on getting this fixed. The trouble is the car's probably only worth about that much but it has a recently new engine and good bodywork and to me is worth a lot more than what I reckon I could get elsewhere for ?600. I don't know whether it's better the devil you know.

    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
    • Also, just to add, the threat to kill someone's dog and try to kick it, is an additional extremely unpleasant layer. I have noticed a lot of the burst water balloons lying around in the park too- that is not great for the environment either.
    • I’m basing it on the fact that Jeremy Corbyn had repeatedly and on record said he is against mandatory vaccinations in any situation, and he wouldn’t disclose wether he had the Covid vaccine himself    as I said. Not as bad as his brother but very definitely a bit weird about the whole thing. Just say you had the vaccination Jeremy, say that everyone should and stop being weird in the middle of a global pandemic    it’s the same slippery evasive nonsense about Brexit and him. About Putin poisonings and him.     if you are happy with his evasiveness then you do you.  But there is a reason the country wouldn’t get behind him
