Starting off in 2nd gear?

And it also seems to have an affinity to fogging up its front windscreen - turn off the A/C and use the fan and it fogs up on the inside, turn it on and it fogs up on the outside!

Any car will do the same thing... just add a fair bit of heat to your A/C according to outside temperature and that'll stop the fogging inside and out.

The pedals dont seem right for heeltoeing it though. Like the accelerator at rest is too far down than the brake pedal at rest. Or is this just my car

I find the pedals in a really nice position for H/T'ing, but i think something like this is very dependant on the driver, their shoes, and what they are used to. When pushing it definately feels more natural than cruising... but when crusing there really shouldnt be a need for H/T

Mate, i agree with you. I can heel and toe in the polo much better than my old car, even with only moderate braking pressure. But as you say, depends on shoes and foot size etc...
