Nice car !

Pushing to 4000rpm from a cold start or the initial 100km or so would have been more harmful. In your case I reckon there is not too much to worry about considering the engine had allready run a fair bit and would have been heated nicely. The idea is to subject it to varying speeds and gear shifts than one consistent speed.

Enjoy the car and try to stick to 2000-2500 RPM till your first service though
