Hi Ike

I've read in a couple of place that the break in can be done faster but I don't know if I have the balls to do that with my new car. I definitely take the point about varying the revs and not running at a constant engine speed. I don't really have many long straight roads around me so running at a constant engine speed shouldn't be a problem. I'll play it by ear, but probably err on the side of caution if needs be.

Mike
