What RPM do you routinely change gears at? What are the best tyre pressures?
I am more confident with my car after a year but would be interested to know what is normal.

Hi David,
Tyre pressure for the front is 26 psi and for the rear 28 psi according to the handbook.
Not sure about particular revs for changing gear, I generally go by engine noise and driving conditions.....

I assume you have a 1500 engine. I used a standard engine last years in a hillclimb championship that was 23 years old and 24k on the clock and changed at 7500. The engine is still absolutely fine. For road use, I would suggest that 6000 is fine.
