Generally have a look on a forum specific to that vehicle as there are different trains of thought for most cars.

Assuming that you can still get the Berkely 3 weelers, which from your purchase you obviously can, I don`t think you will have to run it in to carefully, those old villiers engines needed a good thrashing!

Talk to the dealer when you pick the car up Nigel, every manufacturer has differnet ideas about "running in" mate
