Tips for using RS as every day car!
Hi Guys,
Picking up my first RS on Sunday! It is well looked after and cared for and I will be using this as an every day car! I will be doing about 80 miles ish a day and just wondered if there were any important things I should know apart from the :
Dont boot it from cold
Oil change every 2k miles
Let the turbo cool down when you stop
It is my first turboed car so any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Keep it in the garage. Lol,
Some do tend to burn nasty holes in a persons pocket. They are getting old cars now.
Spose it stems down to the respect thing.
Thrash it everywhere and it will let go.

I will be honest but I will drive it normally (change before 4k) but sometimes I will have the odd blast
It will be kept on my drive most of the time though
IT has just had all the rust cleared up and a lot of underseal put underneath

Where is Karl based and how much would I be looking at for a checkover?
