Clutch Foot Hitting Steering Shaft

[Rich_KTM]

Hi guys,

New to the forum and I've had my Twingo 133 for a few days now.
I've been having a few problems with engaging the clutch, my foot keeps hitting the steering shaft joint and limiting the pedal travel.
My initial solution is to place my foot lower down on the pedal and to the right a bit.
I was wondering however, are there are mods or other solutions to this problem? If I just stamp on the clutch for any reason then I'm not as careful with my foot placement and it catches me out, especially if I'm in the middle of a tight turn and my foot makes it harder to turn the wheel!

I'm 6"4 tall and have size 12 feet, this info might be important to understand why I'm struggling lol.

cut some of ya foot off! or maybe just ya toes.

I was hoping for more of a modification on the car but as a last resort I'll keep that idea in mind...
I could always try to compress my feet into smaller shoes which wouldn't require getting any tools covered in blood

Apart from using your toes to change gear, not really... This seems to be a thing with French cars in particular. My old Peugeot to be exactly the same. The only thing I can think would be to fabricate some kind of cover, but that would only give you less room if anything.
