Sounds like the clutch slave cylinder has probably had it. I think its fairly easy to replace though have never tried it myself. They cost around £30 - £40 from a good motor factors

have you lost fluid from Brake/clutch reservior ? have someone depress clutch pedal and look at slave cylider for movement or loss of fluid before replacing

Hi not much experience with cars and not to sure were the clutch slave cylinder is could anyone point me in the write direction

From memory the slave sits on top of the gearbox. The "master" is on the bulkhead, down by where the clutch pedal is.. if you follow the fluid line, you'll eventually find the slave.

£90 is pretty reasnable to fit it. £55/60 is labour.
