Hi Deano, I also have the 200 bhp petrol, and can tell you that the modern engine does not require running in, thou I didn't flat foot it for some time...I have now done 13,000 kms mainly on French motorways, England-Spain, Spain-England and am loving it, not so smooth as the C% it replaced as I have the 19" wheels, but much more fun, hope you enjoy...
