Been driving my wife's new ('06) Citroen C3 this week. Everything is light as a feather, steering, gear change and pedals. So, got back in the scoob today and it felt like driving a tank. Heavy steering, pedals you have to really force to the floor and stiff as you like gear change. Surprising what you get used to.

 

Xsara i had had really quite heavy steering , bro in law even commented on it after he borrowed it once and he and my sis have a 306 which is apparently the same thing

 

Still I bet it goes like **** off a shovel...

...not.

Ugly too!

Women, eh? What would the mass market car manufacturers do without them?

 

Yes, it goes like that, but without the shovel part!

 

Subarus have really light controls. Try driving a proper car

 

I found the same when i had my company car. Light controls all week then in to a classic on the weekend Felt like a gym workout

 

Scoob appeared to have heavy steering/clutch? Don't make me laugh....I always hated them for being so feather light.

Drive a 1988 Porsche 911 and then tell me what heavy is....thats my benchmark of steering weight perfection. The 911's clutch on the other hand needs just a little more effort though....

 

ive got a 96wrx vltd, p1 and a citreon c4 grand picasso i go weeks sometimes not driving the imprezas then when i do it feels so so different. It takes a while to get used to the heavier clutch, steering etc, but love them ,-). Saying that sometimes on longer trips im so glad the c4 is so soft, its like sitting on my setee and driving lol
