My miles are split between the three cars in the family and my wife and I tend to travel together.

I've covered a mammoth 700 odd miles in the 3 years I've owned it - most of the miles were clocked up in the first 5 years by the previous owner who used it like it should be used !!

Which begs the question, why do you keep it?

Not trying to provoke or wind you up, I'm genuinely intrigued :) I can't say I'd bother keeping a car taxed and insured for such little use unless I was in a position to store and afford a large collection of cars who all had limited use.

Back on topic, mines on around 47k now. I bought it on 32 ish so that's about 5000 a year. Mind you, 5k of those have been covered in 2 large roadtrips so average monthly use is well below what it seems.
 
This is interesting, but it would be more interesting if we could have separated the E85/86 and E89ers out. I think my car is pretty low mileage being an E85 with just over 30k on an 08 plate. Maybe it needs to be split by year?! I wonder how complicated I could make this?! Good survey.

Is yours not E86 on an 08 ?
 
E85 = Roadster
E86 = Coupe

Mine is a 2003 (Sept) currently on 81k, it was on 19k when I bought it 5 years ago.

yeh, I agree - when this closes I may try a more sophisticated survey, thanks
 
Just to show that it you keep on top of the maintenance of the car, it will be as reliable as any Euro-box.

Just had my 6th straight MOT pass - just an advisory for worn front pads, but they're still at 5mm (after the 'Ring and Oulton Park) so should last me until the spring :thumbsup:

Tester still has a marmite relationship with my car as he love the way it sounds and makes the floor shake (this is mainly a commercial vehicle test station), but he's about 6ft and 25 stone, so has 'issues' getting in and out of it :P

Was also just checking to see how accurate my current 25k/year estimate was...
  • 2009-2010 = 11,266
  • 2010-2011 = 16,935
  • 2011-2012 = 19,781
  • 2012-2013 = 25,211
  • 2013-2014 = 24,935
  • 2014-2015 = 24,205
Can anyone see when I started to work most in the UK again :P
