Assuming that means for the first 2000kms, don't exceed 160km/h or 4500rpm...

Dude, it does belong to him, he just has a fixed cost of ownership and he doesn't have to advertise it for sale when he is done in 36 months. He'll pay 40% to drive it for 3 years. If he bought it and drove it like he stole it and then traded it on a new one in 3 years, who would ever know it was abused? The guy that keeps it until it is 6 years old. Whether he leases, or trades after 3 - 4 years, doesn't matter. I say drive it like you stole it unless you are keeping it long term.
