May be I should put up some pictures of what I found.
The clutch felt a little jerky when I was reversing the car - I havenīt driven it for more than 4 meters so far.
Because Iīm repairing the rust on the front end of the car I removed the engine to get better access and as it was out of the car it was a simple step to remove the gearbox.
The existing flywheel contact surface is a bit grooved and could do with a skim
The existing clutch friction material is thick
But the pressure plate side of the clutch is a bit messed up like the flywheel side. It looks like someone has just slammed in new parts between worn.

I contacted a local machine shop for a quote and it turned out to be as much as a replacement flywheel from an online shop. So as is it cold I ordered the online solution!
(But then had to de-rust and paint)
A new clutch assembly has already been ordered from Sweden - hopefully thatīll be winging its way to Holland soon - the existing parts are not to be trusted. It will be a brand new / as good as new system by the end of this
After degreasing and painting the engine block I will most certainly be setting and checking the flywheel in accordance with the workshop manual.
