748 Clutch question

So when is a clutch worn out ???

Seems a silly question although my 2001 9000mile 748s has just been serviced.
I was told that the clutch is totally knackered and needs a complete replacement (plates,springs, boss(?) the lot).

It rides, it pulls, and does not slip. OK there are the occaisional judders
when pulling away from a standstill but not consistantly so I'm at a loss as to what is faulty.
I suppose as I'm used to how it behaves I dont feel there is anything wrong.

If the comment is as a result of a visual inspection and the condition of the basket would this ultimatly be what is being described ?

What is the consequence of not making the replacement ?

Suggestions for the best (affordable) place to get hold of the replacement parts.
