Nice car, it's not even run in yet!

Ken, you've got me worried now.....please elaborate....do you mean general Granny stuff like slipping the clutch, bouncing off kerbs, driving up dual carriageways on the wrong side ?

Nice car, it's not even run in yet!

Picked the car up today and well chuffed with it, I've still not stopped grinning. Big thanks to Del for running it in for me so carefully over the last 16 thousand miles, and for taking good care of it

Never explored the rev limiter too much today but there's plenty of time for that later

Oh, and take it easy in the wet at first....forwards turns into backwards with too much enthusiasm

I can confirm that throughout ownership, the red light had only ever appeared 3 times.

Once when MMC done it.
Twice when I done it... when I realised I wasn't driving fast enough and MMC had confirmed that the light was in fact, working.

The Red Light? I thought it meant "Change Gear in 1/2 a second"?

I must confess my Red Light has been on more than 3 times...every single time I take it out.
