Have just bought the above car for 2k only done 87k miles mostly urban though. Held it on the clutch on hill today and terrible smell of burning rubber, does it mean clutch is going had slight smell before when heater frist turned on, otherwise car does need revs in 1st strating off but seems very good runner. Any advice pls.
