andyvvc Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Mine is a daily driver (when i can't be arsed with the train into work). Shopping car. Weekend Warrior. Motorway Muncher etc Owned for a little over 25 months, put on 38k miles. I did my usual weekend wash today, but after the clay bar i used some AutoGlym Polish....bugger me, the car looks 'wet' all the time now, the shine is almost showroom !

andyvvc Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 i just noticed that mine has just sailed past the 40k mark this week............ Mind you can't complain on a 2003 car I suppose. lol - mine's a 2003 too.... you have a LOT of mileage left in her yet. At nearly 100k mine still pulls as well as it ever did. I still scare 911 owners and make M3 drivers realise that they *will* have to make an effort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilp Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 I've just done almost 21,500. Back axle has just starting creaking and clicking! Unsure whether to extend the warranty or not? Is it worth it? Under warranty till it's 4th birthday in june Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
