like we said just wondered thats all dont mind paying for it in one way just dont want to be had over the fence aint a £50.00 quid car
Re: advice ((just wondered really )) any help will be fine
Did you take it for a test drive? Did you notice the problems before or after you purchased it? If before, did you mention anything to the trader?
Perhaps if you could use a little punctuation instead of the 'txt tlk' then it would make your post easier to understand.

First off - 'Sold as seen' has no legal standing, it does not exist.
Second - book it in for an MoT as soon as possible, like tomorrow. This has nothing to do with the clutch, but will show up any problems with wheel bearings and anything else that may be wrong.
On completion of the MoT, post up the results.

You also need to be aware now that MoT tests are computerised, that if it fails the MoT test, it will flag as such on ANPR until it subsequently passes.

Absolutely
I would only take it for a pre MOT check, they can carryout all tests required, if there are some items that need attention but are not dangerous you should be informed.
