I need to get a new clutch.

I took my car for an MOT and asked them to also give the car a service. Yes you read that correctly! An actual service :lol:

The car passed the MOT no problem.

I asked them to inspect the clutch because gear change has become quite 'clunky' and I have to double clutch sometimes to select reverse. New clutch required.

I have been quoted £560 supply and fit. Not by Honda. But is a Honda part.

Is £560 reasonable?

Yeah that is a reasonable price.

I am sure TGM do it for £500 all in though.

How long is a piece of string?? It depends on how it is used.:D
 
Well my car has 160,000 + miles and hasn't had an easy life so it has done well :lol:

The car has a few extra rattles than it used to. Nothing that can't be sorted though.

I've had the rear suspension arms or something like that replaced. £150 for new ones. I was getting bad wear on the inside of both rear tyres.

The clutch now obviously needs sorting.

Other than that its bomb proof. It feels quicker than it ever used to :twisted:

I really do think it will see 1,000,000 miles :lol:
