I do think it handles pretty well though. I didn't notice any delay in the throttle. The first couple of times I touched the brakes I almost went through the windscreen (saved by my seatbelt), but they were a bit more like my old Passat so I got used to them very quickly and I think they're fine (make my IS brakes seem terrible !).

Which model is it? The one I've driven the most of is a 1.4 16v 'expression', although I've played in both a 1.2 sport extreme (which is a contradiction surely) and a 1.6 as well.
Unfortunately overassistance is commonplace in modern cars. I doubt the brakes in your IS are terrible, I'd expect them to be progressive and provide quite a lot of pedal feedback. The Clio brakes just seem to be on or off!
