Back in my 1.4 days headgaskets would pop with the slightest throttle from cold lol.
I didn't thrash it, just drove it normally really, as if it was hot, rather than changing at 1500rpm and barely touching the throttle until warm - because it never would warm up in 15miles at constant 40mph otherwise.
Bores and pistons are fine too, no marks or scores at all.
Although everythings a bit looser when cold so I would expect some oil to pass the rings if that guy redlines it from cold everywhere lol.
