Strange topic, but I'm wondering if any of you have trouble with the pedals on your 206. When I have my foot on the clutch and depressed the top of my shoes hit the steering column making the steering hard to turn lol.

Now I'm guessing you are meant to be using the top parts of your shoe on the pedal, but I don't feel comfortable doing this as if foot slips there is no bar there to catch and the clutch would fully pop out. I've tried a few different seat positions but still the same, also sometimes i clip the edge of another pedal lol

Anyone else have problems? or am I just strange

I have the same problem, so its not just you!
Getting used to it now, but everyone who drives it says the same thing.
It could do with a cowling or something.

Glad I'm not the only one Razz I was thinking maybe having ya foot at a sort of angle might help but tend to just go back to normal habit of putting it right on the pedal lol.

Have you found any work arounds for it?

I've never had a problem with either 206, i have little feet. So maybe you guys just have large feet. And it is known that the pedals are closer together in the 206 to most cars. I know you don't want to try using the top part of your shoe, but if you do it with your toes and bend you'r foot it might solve the problem Smile Also if your wearing sensible shoes, your foot shouldn't slip of the pedals Razz

My foot doesn't doesn't touch the steering collumn, but right foot will sometimes catch on something fixed above the brake pedal, I think its just a piece of plastic.

I tend to have the heel of my left foot half way between the clutch pedal and foot rest so I have a fast switch between the two
