Clutch on the way

Think my clutch is going on my 53 STI UK and only done 47k miles. Revs increasing suddenly in 6th when accelerating on Mway. Also feels bit funny under foot sometimes.
First time I've ever killed a clutch in 20 odd years of hard driving. Last scooby had 85k on before swapping without any trouble at all.
Have recently moved from rural to city life so probably all these Leeds gridlocked traffic jams.
Can anyone suggest Scooby specialist local to Leeds/Wakefield for a new one and any idea how much its gunna rob me. Dont really want to go to Main dealer!

Scoobyclinic not far down the M1. Their clutch deals are posted on their website. I have an 03STi 328/300 with SC uprated balanced clutch fitted and it works fine.

Try APP in Sheffield on Edmund road, run by the Ex service manger from Mony's subaru, excellent service and really good prices, alot cheaper than most other specialist in South Yorkshire

Number is 0114 276 8013 or 0798 034 6323

My clutch was bad, rang Paul at APP, came and picked up my scooby, fixed clutch and returned car for about HALF the price quoted by Montys at Sheffield.

PLUS a valet and a two free bulbs (he could have charged me, but he didn't).

I cannot recommend APP enough. I will certainly use them again. And they are all above board, and will stamp your service book.
