Mr Clutch

[essexdon]

Anyone have any experience of these? All I read is bad things about them, but I take everything with a pinch of salt as the net is full of moaners anywa, or is it a case of no smoke and fire?

They did a friends mk1 Mondeo a few years back, didn't alighn the subframe back properly, dropped it back down on the floor and hey presto cracked windscreen.

3 years ago clutch went on my vec gsi, took it straight to them as didnt know where else to go and they knew i was desperate and it cost me...

Once i had paid up i had a look around- i had been ripped off.

could have had 3 clutches fitted to my car for what i paid! well worth looking around first, times have changed but i know i was gutted to have just blown so much money away

also, what they quoted me to start with wasnt what i paid because they found lots of other bits a bobs wrong, I didnt know at the time so just paid.
I dont know if these bits did requre changing, but as i said.. they saw me coming

I can literally name at least 5 of my customers that have been ripped off by them.

previous owner of my old 306 xsi had a clutch fitted there. Only lasted 20k miles then it went. I had it changed for a proper valeo clutch at a local specialist for less than what the previous owner paid for a reconditioned clutch at mr clutch.

Weren't they on Watchdog/Rogue Traders a while back?

Infact I'm almost certian they were.

No personal experience with them but never heard anything good.

Tried Mrs Clutch?

But seriously, I've heard nothing but bad things, just use a reputable garage, saves any aggravation.
