So are we saying clutch up, or down? Down, right…?

If you’ve got a silly delicate car then clutch down. Normal car clutch up as there’s no other reason. 🙂

You need to learn some smoothness and stay off the brakes, my son….

Aye, learn how to drive – no-one who can drive properly puts any heat into the brakes….

I’ve got one auto and one car where the engine doesn’t start until after you’ve driven off.. so it’s more or less academic currently 🙂

I was told by my driving instructor to depress the clutch to make life easier for the starter motor. Back when cars were in black and white this was good advice, these days I’ll be shocked if it makes any practical difference either way.

I still do it as a belt-and-braces way of ensuring I’m out of gear, and because there’s no discernible reason not to.
