Default DMF replacement

Gents, Could anyone advise me on the following question please.

I have an 03 tourer and the clutch slave cylinder has leaked. Prior to this the clutch felt absolutely fine and was biting at half pedal, with smooth gear changes. The car has done 195K.

I work in a rural area and don't have alternative means of transport, so had to lay the Rover up and buy another car. However, the Rover is too good to scrap so I am considering getting the clutch replaced and either selling or using again.

The question is...... with this mileage would it be advisable to replace the DMF? If so, the repair cost would make it uneconomical, especially to sell on. All comments gratefully received.

Don't bother unless it's worn. Some cars have done 300k on originals, mines had two and has the same mileage as yours.
