car keeps stalling and shudders
maybe its my appalling driving lol, but my dad seems to have the same problem and hes been driving for 20 years (but had an automatic for the last 7 years so might be why?)
but car keeps stalling from 1st to 2nd before i've even changed gear, and it shudders alot as its going along? any ideas or do i just need to get used to it lol

Tbh saxos arnt the easiest of cars to get use to driving after driving 'newer' car and your learner car. Its just a case of getting used to it.
Or are you saying its stalling when youve got your foot down on the clutch?
You may not be pushing the clutch down far enough and your just catching the bite point so its stalling

Do you know much in terms of the history of this car? It could be a number of issues.. how many miles has the clutch actually covered? Any chance it could be on it's last legs? Does it slip at all?
Again as mentioned above, if the fuel tank has been let to run dry and gunk fed into the injectors they may need a clean/replacement to stop shudderring. What is the car like on idle?
