A friend in the UK was driving his mini the other day and he said "the clutch jammed and the pedal is rock solid".

Anybody got any ideas about what this might have been caused by???

Cheers

If the flexible hose stuffs up the pedal can go solid.

Master or slave cylinder could have seized.

The clutch slave spring is missing and either.

Ball at the end of the clutch arm has snapped.
The pressure plate has collapsed.

My guess.
