Not always, it's better to drive the car at low revs than have it sat idleing for ages.

Look in your driver manuals that came with your car basically it says start driving straight away but dont exceed 3k rpm and dont accelerate to heavy untill the engine is warm

As said, better to drive away, warms up quicker and gets oil circulating.

would only like a vr6 bud and wouldnt be kind on the insurance and fuel etc..
need something insurance friendly, good on fuel etc..
so ideally below a 1.6 (to keep insurance/fuel and tax costs down)
