what do you mean not thrashed? Isn't that what the rev limiter is for?

I'm about to hit 200k in the next week or 2. Regulary thrashed because i never thought it would last this long an i didn't want it to go wrong before i'd had some fun in it.

I've either been lucky or the A8 is very much more reliable than everyone expects.
