You can drive it like Tommi everyday if you also maintain it like Tommi's Crew does after each drive.

No engine is built to be driven within an inch of it's life 100% of the time.

Relax, defects are bound to occur. Don't let that keep you from enjoying your new motor to the fullest

BTW, where are you located? (obviously not in the US)

EDIT: nevermind, just saw your from the uk

yeah its all about the maintenence and common sense =P
keep good oil in there, but good oil doesn't help if you you redline right after a cold start and there's none circulating through the turbo and the motor...
