I've driven the DS3 and its on par with mine on handling. I drove the 150bhp petrol and it felt pretty nippy.
I've also driven the old C3 and it was no where near as shocking as this one !

He picked the 90bhp diesel for some reason. Still, hopefully won't be too bad

Thought that would make it better, in my bmw the clutch was quite heavy (bmws in general tbh) and was a bit annoying after a while in traffic, made my leg a bit sore.

I had the same with a new Suzuki Swift I drove just after passing my driving test. The clutch had this hydraulic or electronic assist and was so ridiculously light so the biting point was impossible to find.
Pulling away smoothly was pot luck.

Exactly that, you just keep lifting hoping your not going to quick. I think you could get used to it, but its not natural and unless all cars are going that way then I dont see why you would want to get used to it.
