I was in quite a bad traffic jam earlier this morning and was stationary.

To save petrol I thought that I may as well turn my engine off; after all starting it is hardly difficult.

But then I realised that the only way to turn the engine off is to turn the key back to position 1; which resets all your trip information not to mention cutting the power off everything & what not for a few seconds.

Is there any other way of turning the engine off (and only that) that I've missed or is that it?

Without stalling the car anyway! I've thought of that one...
