Default Clutch issue, or normal???

Ever since I had the car, ive noticed the clutch bite is very high.
You have to push it all the way down to prevent any grinding, but when releasing it, theres a big flat spot until the biting point, which as its high, you start reviing, then biting point hits, and car sort of revs slightly higher befiore setling, so you sound like you're always pre revving it.

I initially thought I just needed to get used to the clutch, but its almost impossible to gte used to, so im convinced its not normal. Take up is very abrupt, and its digfficult to drive it smoothly.

Anyone had this? is it about normal? and if not, would the delaer be expected to replace this under warranty?

Cheers
Graham

This board's gone clutch mad in the last few days

My clutch is fine, not great to use in traffic but I don't drive much in those conditions. The car is easy to drive smoothly in normal conditions, get a dealer to take a look.
