You can't drive a car without starting it first, regardless of how cold it is outside.... If you mean should you warm it up, the answer is no if it is a modern fuel injected car.

Which is better to a s class 2007 car engine to drive a long distance in a certain time or a short distance in a similar time?

No engine likes being pushed too hard.

So in answering your question an engine will perform in both circumstances as long as you keep it regularly seviced and warm it up first before driving and you will have many more trips to go.
