Things I've done in the past. Seeing how far i can go on the limiter in second (I gave up b4 the car!), hold handbrake on for as long as possible, drop into first at 50ish (locks the wheels and makes baaad noises), climb up serious offroad tracks to watch VLN races  , do laps of the Nordschleife

I had a corsa C SXi. Had 400 miles on the clock, only had it two days and it had to get towed back by the AA because I fooked the gearbox up. They said there were sending me a £400 bill

I've never had one of my own hire cars
Mate had a Fiat Panda 998 with 58 miles on the clock. Played with that in a Car Park.
55 plate Nissan Micra with a "Cold Engine" warning light. Amazing!
K Reg Rover 214 - 96k on the clock. We covered it in kebabs, sauce, tea, milkshake, took it rallying, let girls dance on the roof, dented it, it got smashed up a kerb on the way to trax and bent the wishbone, wanted to take it round the track at trax  , put 3k on it in 3 weeks Amazing car!
Corsa 2.0 16v Vegas - Sold

The 06 corsa C 1.4 Twinport i wrote off had only delivery miles on it when i got it. I put 2000miles on it before making sweet love to the back of a transit van in it. Was fun though i dont know if you run new cars in but this car wasnt. Was getting blue puffs of smoke out of it from time to time.
Oh and i always make sure to return the car with a large compliment of Maccy D's packaging in the rear.
I abused the corsa so much that i actually washed it after sliding round a field in it, the car was SO filthy i felt bad
