    20,000 miles passed today while doing 100mph in celebration... I am certain that the engine is better in every way now that it was at 10,000 miles. Smoother, more powerful/flexible and more economical too. And it still uses no oil whatsoever.

    BTW - i have to say i totally agree - my coop was 1 yesterday and with 17500 miles on the clock it seems more responsive and i get better fuel economy now than i ever did!

    18000 on the clock today, and my One's doing fine.
    Better MPG, and slightly better acceleration.
