hi,
i was wondering if anyone could help, I was driving today and my car started to judder as i came off the clutch pedal when changing gear, it was mainly when changing from 2nd to 3rd and it was taking more revs than normal to pull away. :)

Does anyone know what could be causing this? or has anyone experienced something similar?

Could be several things such as a contaminated or worn clutch plate, deformed flywheel or drive plate or release bearing problems ! With the higher revs its sounds like your clutch is either worn or contaminated with oil and slipping !! Either way sounds like its time for a change !

Thanks!
It has developed an oil leak in the past week so it could be oil on the clutch plate depends where its leaking from i suppose.
