  You should just drive it without the clutch, couldn't do any more damage than you do with the clutch.

 I once drove a Nissan Almera from Peterborough to the NEC, then for 3 days between the NEc and Aston (through spaghetti junction), then back to Peterborough without using the clutch once. It was also fully loaded with 5 people all the time.

 I won a £50 bet for doing, but I bet the hire company wouldn't have been as happy as I was. ;D

its well known  that carrying a lot of weight like a big tank of water puts enormous strain on the clutch on vans.i dont know where you take vans for repairs but ive never paid more than £400 for any repair whether its a new clutch or anything else in 23 years of driving.most cars/vans ive had have been at least 9-10 years old as well.

best wishes gav and hope you get it sorted soon.

Is it definately the clutch slave cylinder gone ?  Because the clutch master cylinder is the common fault on the 56 plate and above, and its the least hassle to fix.

Having mine done at moment, my symptons were the clutch pedal wasn't coming right back up on its own,  the last inch you had to pull up with your toe.

Master cylinder  £22.00 from vauxhall and fitting £75 from one of my customers who is a mechanic.
If it is the slave do the clutch while the gearbox is out, it extra but it will be worth doing.
