Default How heavy or light is the Fiesta ST clutch?

Hi folks!

I need a new car.

I have been into French hatches but the Clio 172's heavy clutch is just too heavy for my knee (an injury and running have made it weak).

How light is the ST's clutch? I am looking for something light.

Also, with the seats down, does it have a big boot??

Thanks all- much appreciated!

Are you talking about the ST150? Quite light in my opinion
I've since upgraded to a helix clutch and that's just as light as standard.

When I first got the car I stalled a few times as the flywheel is light as well... not really a problem but just for info in case it might be an issue with the knee for some reason.

Boot is okay for a small car, with the seats down I managed to get 4 wheels (with tyres) and 4 more tyres in. I took a picture of mine with the seats down for someone else on here but can't find it at the moment.

standard clutch is fine.

i disagree with jim about helix being as light as standard though? ive got a helix organic fitted and it's definitely heavier

Yeah I heard that before but I didn't really notice a difference, does makes me wonder if they actually fitted one.
