Dear all,
Alhamdullah, on coming Saturday I am taking delivery of my new Wagon R from Lahore. I need suggestion regarding route. I need to come Islamabad.

Is it safe to take motorway or I should come from GT road ?
Does the constant speed of ~110 kmph will hurt new parts ?

The user manual of many cars warns against driving at constant speed for longer duration when the ODO is below 1000 Kms.

I drove my 100 km driven swift through motorway but i kept these things in mind. i.e accelerating at a mild rate and keeping rpms below 3000 at all times. Also, i tried to restrict myself within 80-100 kmph range.

RPM less than 3000
Speed between 80-100 kmph
No hard brakes
No quick accleration

I drove my swift 140 kms on day one on GT ROAD.
