Continued to ease in the harder driving. its a little silly to think at 999 bad things will happen if driven hard but at 1000 its a ok. I started gradually increasing how hard I drove starting at about 900.

Then, there are 3 or 4 cars that I personally know have been thrashed from the beginning. If any person who has followed the break in hops into these cars from their own they instantly realise the car feels more powerful and responsive. Lastly, here in NZ we have the TR86 race cars. They were flogged from day one with no break in, straight onto the circuit. Unofficially, in a conversation, I have had someone from Toyota also confirm all of the above. As for reliability and longevity, well don't know, no one seems to be having problems.... |

Finally hit the magic number yesterday afternoon. After I got my requisite odometer picture I celebrated by passing two motorhomes in one shot
