Nice work getting it through the mot, well done!
What was the issue with your clutch master cylinder? I only ask because I have a long-term problem with mine - when I rebuilt the running gear I used cheap new master cylinders bought from an ebay seller for both brakes and clutch. The one I put on the brake circuit locked the brakes on every time you pushed the pedal. the seller replaced it quickly and without any fuss, which was good, but roughly every 500 miles or so I start to get clutch slip on acceleration (I fitted a new clutch just after I mot'd it btw).
Momentarily loosening the nut locking the pipe from the clutch master to the slave cylinder results in a spurt of pressurised clutch fluid and the clutch resets and is fine for the next 500 miles.
I suppose I really ought to replace the master cylinder, but I just haven't got round to it yet. Having said that, the last time it did it was just as I pulled out onto a busy dual carriageway from a standstill, which was a bit scary when I didn't get the go I was hoping for.
