Ok here goes, as you can see i'm a newbie here and looking for some advise.
My little saxo is p reg the milage is at 51,000 i'm the second owner of her bless her.
Anyhow my job has just moved to another location and it seems i will be diong about 110 miles per day :wall:, i'm so worried about how my little saxo is going to cope, she has a service every 6,000 miles miles and i change the oil every 2 months, my hubby is in the motor trade so i get it all done cheaper.
Your thinking why don't i ask hubby for advise, well he tells me cilla ( thats the cars name) will be fine as long as she has a regular oil change.
So i will be putting 29,000 miles per year on her, please tell me someone, there opions please, will Cilla be ok to do these extra miles.
I never rag her, as she's only a 1.1 engine.
She has never let me down.
I'm not in a position at the moment to buy another car.

With regular oil and filter changes it should be fine. I did 25000 miles in less than a year in my old 1.1 and never had a problem :y:

Cheers guys, thats good to know.
I just have this hang up about putting milage on her, she's well looked after polished and cleaned every week, even the engine bay.
She's agood little car excellent on fuel i can get about 400 miles on a full tank, i've done 20,000 on a set of mitchelin tyres and they are only half worn.
I would reconmend a saxo any day, i even past my test in her, so we have a special thing on going together.:P
