They're all like it mate. I've asked before and nobody seems to know why it's like it

yes mines the same and everyone comments on how stiff it is. Im used to it now but i got told it was because they had a batch of corsa with really loose pedals and were getting stuck so the uprated the spring.

My old C, and now my Sport both have stiff throttles. So it's just a thing with the car.

think it's a standard thing with the B, in comparison my C's is as light as a feather, so takes some getting used to switching between the two

isnt it because your B is a cabled throttle and your C is fly by wire.

That's why I got the exact car I wanted, and cheap too. The girl that had it before me didn't like the stiff throttle and clutch

She was used to a Ford Ka in which the pedals are that light it feels like they press theirselves
