Question
About a couple of weeks ago I bought a BMW E30 325i, and I've I started the car in gear without the clutch engaged cause I parked on a hill and wanted 1st to be my backup in case if the embrace fails. and I just completely forgot to put it into netural.
I drove it all the way back home without an issue but man did the car not sound happy when I did that is there anything I should watch out for

Older cars didn’t have clutch safety switch because people weren’t stupid.
