not only does the bastid start the engine when you think you are checking the mileage.
but mrs EO couldnt start the engine, yet I could
turns out, you need to press the clutch (my habit) in order to start the engine
proper drivers (mrs EO) have to learn my nasty habit.
Yep, told you. It's a good habit really, since even if you're in gear you shouldn't go anywhere. I don't like the idea of the Start Button being on the steering wheel as you described, though. Sounds too easy to turn off when you're driving on the motorway, Chris Moyles comes on the radio and in your consternation and haste to shut him up you kill the engine instead. Needs a better "UX Designer" that car. Possibly one with Photoshop skills instead of just bog-standard Paint.
I was always taught press the clutch, handbreak on, start the engine.
The same person taught me how to move a car that is broken down, by trying to start the engine with the clutch up and handbreak off. This is why you should always do the opposite.
