Congrats, Rox. Very nice looking car. Your snaps make it look much better than all of Honda’s super sexy advert stuff. You pix show it for real and damn good looking! Shouldn’t you take it a little bit easy until run-in? I am with my Mini; 3 months old, 400 on clock, am searching for any excuse to get mileage up to 1000 so I can see what 2litres does in a machine weighing just a tad over a tonne.
Thx yeah the advert has The red car
Is a blue sportsline vid about in the blue but was a dull wet day they shot it on… red is the standard colour it comes in though so at least honda honest..
It says nothing in the manual about waiting any mount of miles but it does say wait until engine has warmed up before driving spritely hehe… Oil temperature not the water temp.
7000rpm where the red starts as well… I was no where near there more like 5500.. Takes me back to my 205 gti days that used to say in the manual do not race until engine is warm..
I think most modern new cars the engines don’t need running in as such, in a way they did many years ago or after an engine rebuild.. Once they fullywarmed up they good to go, unless stated otherwise. Maybe you won’t get the best fuel ecomony till after so many miles maybe upto 5k on a diesel.
Brakes now they a different matter and i did not push it to much as yet till they bed in.. As stopping is the most important thing after all. May hit the dales this weekend.
