So did you chop your daughter's leg off for resting it on the clutch pedal?

No, I just pointed to the 'made for that job' wedge, next to the clutch pedal .....she was amazed she got off lightly I know

Gosh, that clutch looks pretty tiny! I would have guessed it would have an order if magnitude larger than the tiny clutch in my sister's '97 (original generation) 1.3 Kent engined Ka (worn down to the rivets at something daft like just 31,000 miles covered. When gearbox came off, this tiny little thing made it obvious why such a short life!

MattBLancs I know what you mean, but I would guess 150K mixed driving is easily achievable given the friction disc condition, the abuse killed it early in this case!
