Can you explain the jerky motion more in detail?

The handbrake can get slightly stuck when left on for a long time. It will take some more force than usual to make the car roll, and it will loosen with a snap.

The brakes will rust if the car is left alone for a long time after being wet. This will mostly cause extra noise during braking until the rust is gone.

When the engine is not up to operating temperature, it will be slightly down on torque and power, and the idle regulation is not as stable as usual, so it will require somewhat smoother inputs from the driver.

I am not familiar with your transmission, but in general, when the oil in the gearbox is not up to operating temperature, all operation of a transmission will be less smooth than normal. On really cold days, it can be close to impossible to shift gears the first minute of driving.
