I don't know about your cars but mine warms up much quicker when I just jump in and drive, keeping the revs < 3000rpm...

I suppose that the transmission being used will warmup the cooland flowing thru its passages and contribute to warming up the engine quicker than if the motor were left to idle and fast idle in the driveway in the mornings.

It is also impractical for me to leave the car idling in the mornings. I believe that by simply taking care not to rev the engine into the higher areas of the range as I did when I first got my P's Sad that it is not doing the engine harm.

Surely there has been research done on this topic?

My 2 cents anyway, feel free to correct/criticise.
