Nick U Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Thats a lot of miles!! Have you thought about buying a cheep car to get you to work and back in the week, and use the toy at the weekends? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I worked out my fuel bill for the last year and it came in at a hefty £6,700!! Needless to say I now have a Mk1 Golf as my runabout!! Bring on the 40mpg!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I have 22k miles on but car is 2 at the end of may so I'm not too bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I have 13k on mine and he's just had his 2nd birthday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revsport Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Mine is a daily driver too. 18 miles per day to work then whatever detours add them on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek_ZR Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I have only done 5800 and the ZR will be 1yr old at the end of the month That's because I only use it for social use and use an MG ZR for work. I expect I will do up to 1500 miles if not more in the ZR in July when I go to Torquay for a week and maybe a few other places during week 2 including London. My main concern is what the fuel will cost not the miles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Mine will be 1 year old on Sunday. 17,880 miles. Used daily for work which is a 46 mile round trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoREoD Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I feel guilty cos my GT4, six months old on 1st March, has done 12,500! This is because: a) I use it to get to my customers I cant stop driving it! Keep thinking about a "work" car - but dont know what I'd get - Maybe another Z!!

Digsy Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 About 12.5k in 1 year. Used as a daily driver I'm afraid - got the car park dings to prove it! Seldom feel tempted to take the Micra instead (snow excepted!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polarbear Posted March 9, 2006 Author Share Posted March 9, 2006 Work pays for the fuel so it only costs me the tax amount I thought about a hack to run to work, but I can't face driving anything else unless there's no choice. If the weather is really bad and/or I need to park overnight at the airport I take the wife's Focus. Remember, don't polish it - drive it !!!!
