It seems there are more and more show cars around and owners of cossies who don't drive them hard because they are worried they'll break.

Do many cossie owners drive them hard and if so do they break much?

TurboShed

I hammer the living shit out of mine every day, costs me a fortune in Optimax though. It's the sound of the turbo spinning up... it's addictive.

Maintain it properly and don't use cheap parts and it won't break.

Ain't no point having one otherwise, Its like the car is begging to be revved past 3000 so the turbo can do its job!

I dont drive it like a twat on the road but it gets plenty of stick on track days

i used to horse mine all the time and it was fine as long as u let the turbo heat up properly first then cool down afterwards, i 7 months of hard driving all i replaced was an actuator, wheel bearings and disks and pads and the car is still holiding strong with it's new owner, it has 120000 miles and not had a rebuild, they are reliable to those who treat them well lol,

I thrash the nuts off mine 7000rpm all day, the only "breakdown" is near garages often, when I need to stick a special pipe into the side of the car,
and parts with lots of money, then I have a breakdown so we are all happy.
