    Hello!

    Just thought I'd say hi. I'm expecting my new Mini this week from Eastern in Edinburgh - it's been a long wait...

    Does anyone have any experience of how long the car takes to run in before you get to experience it at its best?

    Welcome aboard Steve. Nice to see another Edinburgh member!

    The official line is 1500 miles and not over 4000revs. In my case, it didn't take long! 600 miles in the first week

    It sounds like I might have to take a long drive in the first few days... I don't know if I have enough self control to cope for much longer! :)
