I actually called 6 different garages (including 2 automatic gearbox specialists) in my area. The moment they hear the word PowerShift, they all say the same thing: they don’t do them.
I guess there’s a reason for that. There are some independent garages “specialising” in PowerShift gearboxes, but they are quite far away and my car couldn’t make it that far with a broken clutch. Pain in the neck.
It’s all done now, I have collected the car yesterday and it drives as good as new. Yes, it is very disappointing as the car isn’t that old and doesn’t have many miles on the clock. Clutch is a major failure and it will make me think twice next time I’ll be considering buying a Ford. The damage for the brand is significant.
Many thanks again for all your replies.
Peter.

The indie garage i use is fantastic.
He gives a guarantee on all work for 12 months that he completes regardless of whather he supplies the parts or i do. I use him for any jobs i find beyond the scope of my diy skills.
