kil2002 1 Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 Thinking of getting a VR6, problem is i only work 1 mile away from home about a 3 or 4 minute journey max, will it be any use getting a VR6, starting it up in the morning and driving it for only 1 mile the car wont be even warmed up and i will shut the engine off when i park up, someone told me that wont be good for the car the engine, the fuel consumption wont be good you gotta give the VR a good drive, the oil wont warm up around the car and you'll be doing more bad to the car than goodcan you confirm this or is he talking a load of cobblers?what if i start up the car in the morning then sit in it for a good 10 mins and warm the car up then drive to work then drive around the sides roads for a few mins then park up, even still probly max 2 miles Link to post Share on other sites
