Default Clutch is slipping

My clutch is starting to slip. I am just wondering if I need to buy a new one or get a second hand one? also how much would I be looking to spend to buy and get someone to fit it. I have a uk 2000 turbo.
cheers

changing the clutch is a right pain, deffinately pay someone to do it for you rather than do it yourself.
n go for a new one. in the long run, its more cost effective than going for a second hand one that could end up going again n costing you more to replace

If you buy it from the right place it is cheap to do

This is the clutch you need: Aztec Performance Online - Exedy 230mm Clutch Kit
This one will also fit and do the job: Aztec Performance Online - Exedy 225mm Clutch Kit

You may be able to find a mobile mechanic to do it for around £100 or a garage for around £200.

I'm in Princes Risborough, Bucks - not too far from North London.

I'm happy to fit a clutch for you, and can do the job while you wait.

Drop me a PM if you'd like to discuss the options
