Is it normal for a 2014 Ford Ka to have a high biting point?

I've just bought a 2014 Ford Ka for my daughter. It has 14,000 miles, however the clutch pedal biting point is quite high. Is this normal?

No. Same drivetrain as a FIAT 500 and that is not a characteristic so it probably has a worn clutch.

Easy to drive and economical. Based on the Fiat 500 but handles much better. More room in rear than 500.
