Just wondering how many miles people guestimate they have drove in their own personal cars since they passed their test?
Quite scary when you work it out.
Been driving 5 years and 2 months-ish and adding up all the miles from each car its about 130,000.
If some clever clogs is out there, would be interesting to try and convert it into a average MPG and then figure out how much has been spent on fuel using £1 a litre?

You couldn't work out how much you've spent over 5 year.... Because we couldn't tell how much fuel was when you filled up ?

Roughly working it out, I think I have done 47,000 miles.
I remember exact mileages of when I bought/sold the cards.
Micra was on 95014 and sold it on 97779.
Westie was on 55084 and sold it on 65180.
VTR was on 12178 and sold it on 27779 (Still around that figure lol).
Focus was on 33330 and sold it on 40166.
VTS was on 26937 and sold it on 28500.
307 was on 21996 and it's on 27227 now.
Plus about 5000 in other cars - Louises, Mums, Dads, Mikes.
Quite a bit.

3 yrs about 65k
average between cars of 10 quid to 90 miles
65k divided by 90 miles = 722.2recur
10 times 722.2recur = 7222.2recur
GUESTIMATE £7222 on fuel, lol
