If you are snapping cables that quickly, you need the clutch changing.

Next time you change the clutch cable fella change the whole pedal for the revised soft pedal one that was mentioned above!

2live and I did mine last year or the one before, was a bugger of a job but worth it!

If you order a new pedal from Renault, do you automatically get a soft pedal or are there two different pedals available?
