If it makes you feel better I bought a Movano last May did the cam belt, service etc etc and after 8 weeks the engine blew up!!

Total loss was just over £2K.

Can you afford to get the clutch fixed? Cars still need maintenance.

It's always good to have a plan B.

I had to resort to using my wifes car and a trailer for 9 months until I could afford to replace the van.

get the clutch fixed!my torsion suspension bar snapped on my kangoo 2 weeks after buying it(with no water in the back!)going too fast over a speed bump!!clutch went a few months ago.sorted now.got cambelt done and new exhaust all in the first week as well.

always keep money for repairs when buying a second hand van.something always needs doing in the first 6 months. ;) ;D ;D
price higher/work harder!
