Lads and Lassies I,m drving a 99 astra with 100% genuine 85000 miles on original clutch but feels like its starting to slip under load.When that happens I throw it down lower gear and it has the instant boost and power of acceleration as if there was nothing wrong.Does this sound as though were looking at a full clutch replacement and any ideas of a decent price for renewel,also taking into account the car is 17 years old and what the car would be worth now with a very badly faded red colour body would it be wise to replace.Has passed the NCT the last 12 odd years I,ve owned it and its a great reliable runner that is serving me well,cheers...

Get some compound and some elbow grease on the faded paintwork.
