1111 came up for me today. Owner's manual says no ripping until 1500. That's 389 to go. I've been good up to now and kept below the 4k recommended rev limit.

You're probably right but waiting is a great way of getting used to the car (especially because we drive on the left and the UK specs are still LHD) and the wait builds up the excitement (as if it wasn't enough waiting for delivery!)

Yeah it really is. And I do my first oil change at 500 miles.

I've had some fun with it, things you can't talk about here.
