A clutch can burn on a car with 10 miles on it, if it is mistreated!

Unless the clutch slips when the pedal is fully realeased, I would be
inclined to agree with your dealer. The clutch will only burn when it
is allowed to slip - if you were creeping along in traffic by holding
revs and 'riding' the clutch then it would be no surprise if it burnt.

As for replacing the clutch - is there any problem now when driving
normally? If not, why should it be replaced?

Argh - I wonder how that happened. My newsreader expires newsgroup
postings 14 days after they are received, so it would seem that
something had caused that post to be delivered to me on 3 November.
