The clutch is really heavy, I mean you have to push really hard, it's like an exercise machine.
Is there a bit that wears out - a spring or something?
I don't have any problems with the actual gear change.
Anyone have the same problem, or even better an answer?
1993 1.9 diesel by the way.

I'd change the clutch cable first and see if it makes a difference. The RHD 306s all seem to suffer from problems with the clutch cable getting stiff due to it's routing. If you've got A/C installed it's a bit of a knuckle grazer, probably best to get a fixed price off a garage to do it. It's not helped by the fact that the Pug garages I dealt with couldn't even work out the correct replacement part number for the cable.
My 306 always had a heavy clutch even after it was replaced (under warranty too). Didn't change the cable though.
My mechanic said that most RHD PSA motors have heavy clutches but my girlie's AX is fine and I've never seen the ZX owners complaining.
I solved it by getting rid of the car. After doing over 40k in it though!
