Hello.
I just got my 197 and I'm still getting used to it. I have a fiesta Zetec S as well in which I find the pedal heights are perfectly set up for heel and toe. With a new wider throttle pedal I can easily get on top of the throttle pedal with the heel/side of my foot.
In the Clio, however, the brake pedal seems to be set up too deep. When braking hard it is below the level of the throttle pedal making it very hard to reach it quickly. To make matters worse, I have to pull the seat forward to get a comfortable grip on the steering wheel (keyless entry is aparently not standard for the german market, hence no rake adjustment on the steering wheel). This means I can't move my knee sufficiently to twist the foot, only to roll off the brake pedal. The height and the cramped space makes H&T impossibly for me.
Is there any way to adjust the height of the pedals in relation to each other?
Is it normal for the brake pedal to go deeper than the throttle when braking hard?
TIA
