Hi Gang

Well, 50 miles......... performance not bad but needs running in. I suspect that it will be a bit GAY for a while. Got an easy 100 mph out of it in a short burst of speed.

Pleased, but MORE BHP REQUIRED!

Cheers

Mike

Welcome to the world of pointless drives just so the magic 1000 miles appears sooner

But they do get better with miles. Mine got significantly better at around 5000 miles, but that had something to do with JabbaSport

.......and nothing to do with it being a bit homosexual before!

seriously mike, look at your posts.

'I suspect that it will be a bit GAY for a while.'

'Think the motor out put will be very GAY after the Type "R"' date=''

'In short handling good/performance a bit gay'

'I think all of a sudden we are in BIG trouble, Gay sentances and too many speedcams have left us wide open!' [/quote']there are other adjectives you know!!

that and your concern about what 'females' think of the RS has led the psychoanalyst in me to think, 'reaction formation' perchance?

No

The car is a bit GAY performance style.......Not as bad as Boy Geroge but still Gay. With 230 ish BHP i suspect it will be far more "Manly".

I hope clears up the confusion for you.

Cheers

Mike

mike you have pm.

Nice one Huck

All my dealers told me not to bother running in my car, but maybe I didn't look like the type that would thrash a car anyway. Why do you need to run in a car, will I have ruined mine because I havent?

i think that it's sensible to, even though they say you don't need to.

however, as long as you've been sensible and not thrashed it to the redline everywhere and when cold etc. during the early stages, i'm sure you'll be fine.

The Advice i got was be brisk but not harsh with it. 75% power for short times.

Well, mine is starting to loosen upo now. Had it 9 days, done just over 2k miles now.
