Volvo 440 clutch replacement

I had a 480 once- very similar.

It was a s*it car too. Thirsty, unreliable, rustier than you'd like. It handled OK and went OK though, but changing it for a Mk2 Golf was one of the best things I did, shortly after modifying it's front end with a tree- it had plenty enough power to make the front run very wide if you gave it a bootful on a wet road, like an idiot might...

That's a good point. The parts will be between £64 and £118 from GSF, plus a good few hours labour. How much can any 440 be worth now?
