Clutch life
How long should a clutch last>?
My car is modded and running 300bhp with 310 torque.
It is starting to slip in 5th, this is my second clutch in 5 years. I had done roughly 50,000 mile in this time. maybe more.

Its very difficult to put a life expectancy on a clutch. Depends ALOT on driving style and how the cars used.
5 years and 50k is ok. I did 70k on the o/e clutch at 330bhp

Oh i know it is a hard one as driving style, length of driving etc. Just seeing if this is normal on a scoob.
To be honest i'd rather go through clutches then gearboxes.
Cheers for replying.
