Default Pug 205 1.8d clutch cable

How easy to do as mine snapped at 4am this morning in town.... Rang AA they said a minimum of 1 hour so I thought fuck it I can change gear without crunching of I'm carefully so that's what I did.


Cheers Mat.

1400 205s are a piece of cake to change. Can't imagine a derv being much different. We have broken a diesel for spares but can't remember the clutch cable routing.
