Just got the lovely and what happen's. Clutch slip's every now and again in 4th/5th when dumping foot down around 4000 rpm.
Now i just need someone to tell me wot i already know...."It's on the way out son".
Biting point o.k. and 1st/2nd full throttle it's fine.

It's a 98 Spyder 26000 miles. Think it's had one at 15,000.

Also going in for a Tubi soon. Is this going to make a difference???
From what has been wrote, i think i might do my bean's on the back of it.

All depends how you drive, if you give it a lot of stick it wont last long.

Have you got AA membership?

Won't be a grand with Verdi's I think.....

But yes definitely on the way out - although mine lasted 1000 miles back from Monaco still when it had started slipping

Verdis quote £450 for a clutch on a 355 (acc. to website)
