there's paying extra to do a good job, and then there's been robbed.
This is the latter

Should last longer than what it has though, even if you do ride the clutch a lot.

CSG are renowned for working on highly modified cars and therefor most of their customers have more money than sense. Couple that with a female who doesn't have a clue about cars and they just add a little bit more on.
I'd hate to go shopping with you as you would just buy the first thing you see and not shop around for the cheapest bargains. You'll be the type who buys 20 of something in Tesco, just because they are on offer and then end up throwing 19 away because you never used them.

Hang on, we are glossing over this
Clutches dont just go
If it did, they are charging you £500 to replace the cable
