3) What logic is the car applying when using the handbrake. 90% of time I can just drive off and it disengages but sometimes, in reverse mostly (only?) I have to manually release it.

Thanks Oliver

I was told that if you feather the throttle in forward or reverse gears it will always disengage the handbrake but if you are to gung ho it wont. Apparently a safety feature to stop accidental depressing of the accelerator.
