Got to change my clutch master and slave cylinder over the next couple of days. Clutch is now biting on the floor. Time to sort it out 
cost me about Ԛ£45 for both at gsf not difficult to do but the slave cylinder has to be done from under the car .....there are only 2 bolts to hold he master cylinder on and the third secures it to the pedal drain the reservoir first ...i removed mine as when i drained it it had about 1/4 inch of crap in it ....2 bolts for the slave cylinder and then brake hose ....then once its all together bleed it. takes a while just make sure you keep topping the reservoir up so you dont draw any air in it shouldnt take you more than an hour or so most of the time is taken removing the trim under the dash to get at the pedals

Don't buy the cheap aluminium one there crap and wear out in a couple of months. Pay the extra and get the steel one, and when you drian the system take the input pipe to the slave off otherwise you leave all the crap in the cylinder if you use the bleed screw. Then you'll have to change that as well in a couple of weeks.
Give the filler a good clean while it's empty and check to see if you were loosing fluid down behind the carpet
if so you best get scrubbing or it will all rot away to nothing (including the bodywork)

There is NO nucleus.
