Hi Guys, Sadly had to miss the Sandringham meet as the clutch started to slip on my MX-5, the clutch pedal felt high when I bought the car at the start of the summer so it was kind of expected at some point. I’ve been quoted £374 all in to do the job, by a local garage who have done a good job on other work on it. I dont have the time, knowledge or space to do this kind of job myself unfortunately. I’ve seen the kits for not too much money so I dont know if this is a fair quote, what do you think?
Well, a half decent clutch kit will be costing them around £120 and the job should take 2-3 hours depending on how familiar they are with MX5’s. Depends on their hourly rate, but that price seems a little steep. I would charge around £300. If their work is good and they are using a quality clutch it may be worth using them as they are your regular garage.
I agree with Eddy, £325.00 is about the right mark for a good quality clutch replacement, so your guy is not too far of the mark.
