Nicely run-in I see
yeah thats what i thought at first Colin but aparently they are run-in properly before being handed out for testing.And also they are made sure they are in tip top condition some times even tweeked up a bit to make sure they beat the compition! I know thats what ford have done before anyway.
I would imagine they do get 'extra' attention knowing the likely abuse they get and whilst the likes of Tiff are unlikely to cause any lasting damage some journos out there are, shall we say, lare ess kind and drivetrains can take a beating. But hopefully the cars are given a thorough check before sale. I recall someone on here discovered they had a ZED that had been a long-termer with EVO (I think it was that mag) and several years on they seemed very happy with their purchase, so enjoy yours!
