Hi all
Just picked up my Arona FR 1.5 from Jennings Middlesbrough. Amazed garage had a 1.5 to buy! Took a week to get it!!! Stunning looker...red with grey roof. Traded in my four year old golf GT. Same engine ...so far compares well.
Can anyone give me advise on how to ... and how much "running in" this car should have.
Thanks

Welcome

That was a lucky find and quick delivery from a decent dealership. As for running in it is the usual 300 miles for tyres and brakes and don't labour the engine for the first 1000 miles. Personally, I just drive normally and smoothly. If I need to be a bit more spirited in terms of driving style then make sure the engine is up to temperature. But try not to 'rag' the engine or use too many revs.

Hey Cello9,

Do you mind posting some pictures of your car (maybe in Members Gallery section)? It's exaxctly the color scheme I'm looking forward to get and I have not been lucky to see one live yet.

Thanks.
