Never used to do that on any of the BMW, VW or even on my Porsche 428S4. (All time favored car)
The 1st is in my humble opinion so short geared it makes almost no sense to use it in normal driving condition.

Am I the only one who does that, keep in mind I only have the car for a couple of days, just curios really.
