Hi Ray, welcome aboard.

An excellent choice - the THP is brilliant, and the black/carmen red combo looks very, very cool.

+1 On the colour combo (seeing as I have the same)

Thanks all for the welcome
I picked my DS3 up on Friday, been out giving it a little run in .
Was told to keep the revs below 3000 for the first 500 miles, is that about right?
Dying to give her a good old spin

If you stick to that, it'll be the most frustrating 500 miles you ever drive!

I'd just avoid ragging it to the red line, and make sure you warm it up fully before you give it the beans.

Enjoy!

Hey there Ray
welcome to the awesomeness lolno way could have kept the revs down when i picked mine up, i wasn't told to from anyone in the dealership anyway.
To be honest the salesman concluded that the best way to explain things was for me to just "try it on the road and figure it out yourself" my kinda thinking lol

[mbartlett]

hi there, my dealer said all modern cars do not need running in... is best to be safe tho... i have heard of people who have thrashed there's from new and seem to gain more power afterwards!? as long as you not keeping it till 200,000 miles ;-) lol
