New clutch cost?

I've got a t6 2016 102ps, done 120k miles. Got full service record runs well.
We're doing a trip to the west country and back up to Yorkshire via Welsh coast next summer and think it might be wise to get clutch renewed due to the mileage on clock. Has anyone got any idea of cost?

I'm in full agreement with @Sackmycook .
Is the clutch giving you cause for concern?
If not I don't see the need to spend a ton of money changing it.
I've sold cars with over 200K miles on the original clutch - yours might have years left in it.
 
120K is nothing, once it does start to slip you could probably get another 10K out of it.
 
As above, a clutch will give ample warning of its demise, its more than likely to be the dual mass flywheel that gives up the ghost before the clutch itself and this will be accompanied by steadily increasing amounts of rattling and banging before it let go all together giving you plenty of time to get it sorted.

My van shudders in reverse and has done for the last 30k miles, it’s now started doing it in 1st gear when pulling away. I can still feather the clutch to make it pull away fairly smooth but I’m wondering how long I’ve got out of this clutch/DMF combo. No slipping just shudder,

I’m minded to just keep driving it, £1500 to replace the lot is quite a bill.
 
Thanks for all the above advice, it's not giving any cause for concern so as someone said, if it's not broke I'll leave it.
When I bought it last March the service book was blank. Prior to the dealer who sold it to me, it belonged to a leasing company and had been leased by one user.
I emailed the maintenance manager at the leasing company re the service history (didn't expect a reply). He kindly sent me the full record showing all services at VW dealer. It didn't show exactly what was done but said vw service as required. I assumed the timing belt and water pump may have been done as part of one of the services, but I had them replaced to be on the safe side.
 
My mate had his t5 clutch and flywheel replaced earlier this year it cost him £995, I've had the same quote to have my 102bhp t6 done but at the moment it's still doing what it should do so I think the KW STX coilovers will be done first
 
as above, not my T6 but the T5.1 workvan, recently asked main dealer for quote on clutch/flywheel and told £920 inc.
