Apart from starting and stopping, you don't need to use the clutch, you can change gear, up and down, without using the clutch on most manual boxes.

Earplugs may be needed though...  

Seriously, if you get the revs right, you don't need to use the clutch.

I'll 3rd that its good fun too bit noisy when you try at first but you quickly get the hang of it

Also bought my v6 with 133,000 november last year and she' up to 144,000 now she's had 2 oil changes and cambelt and runs like a dream. Only noise is from tappetts if left standing for a few days on start up but dissapears within a second or 2, its a good lump

On the higher milers, very regular oil changes will do it the world of good.  Get a TC card (join ABS, or blag one) and it costs around a tenner to do oil change....

It looks like the cd/radio lump is missing too, bet they're not cheap......

Actually they are cheap, as in cheap junk. That was the first thing I binned when I got my MV6, most factory head units are pretty crap (that includes BMW's "hi-fi" Harmon Kardon £1000 upgrade) so you're not missing much. A decent aftermarket unit will sound much better.
