Are these not a bit clattery when in use? I bought some for 99p and they are as noisy a hell. I might push the boat out if your Tesco ones are ok.

I haven't noticed them to be noisy.

Collected 20 live chickens and a triple width Stag wardrobe, and still drove home in comfort. What fabulous cars these are.

Noticed my clutch is slipping under hard acceleration

Got some quotes - c. £600 in Essex using quality parts

Booked an MoT for next week, although it is not due until mid-Jan.

If the MoT is relatively clean it'll get a clutch.

If not ......

A grenade works well, just stand back a bit after pulling the pin.

Make sure they use LUK or Borg and Beck clutch kit with either genuine LUK or the all-metal slave cylinder - in fact, insist on it !! Anything else, and you could be wasting your money. If they won't use these parts, go elsewhere.

Cheers Pete, yes the local Mg/Rover specialist says he quotes for Luk clutch and slaves only.
