350z "locking" or "sticking" when left for a few days

I have a company van, so my Z doesn't get used much at all, maybe once or twice on a weekend. When I get in it after a week of no use, I pull away and feel it slightly hesitating then hear a clunk from underneath. I left it over a week the other day, I got in it, let the handbrake off and it wouldn't even roll off my drive I had to pull away in 1st and the clunk was extra loud. Are there any common issues for this symptom or could it just be the breaks sticking somehow?

 

Also, when the car is cold my clutch also makes a noise. It was replaced OEM last year. If I pull away after starting her up, it makes a whirling sound as I push the clutch up and down about half way. After about 20 seconds of the car warming up, the noise goes away.

 

Any help much appreciated!

Good shout, I haven't cleaned her in a good few weeks tbf!  Thanks 

Didn't put it right, pads got stuck after a wash and leftover in garage. Anyway no big deal just move it bit fore and aft and they will let go
