[jaybiss]

try doing 45,000 a year :P

not me my dad but oh well :D

[Amiee]

thas a hell of alot...

[Yates]

try doing around 15 miles a week, thats like 1.50 per week in petrol, in a month thats roughly 6 quid in petrol

[DarylVTR]

wtf why do you only do that a week? wish i only used that much.

1 Trip to my gf's house and back again is almost 50 miles alone :(

when we split up i was spending sooooo less of petrol lol

[Amiee]

thats a fair way i guess.

[Yates]

wtf why do you only do that a week?

cos i dont go driving it around for no reason, i either walk bike or use my dads car

no point using it when you dont have to

[DarylVTR]

thats cool wish i could do that, i must do about 25miles a day to work and back so one trip to work is more than you do in a month! shocking!

I enjoy driving thou, when im bored il go out driving it give me sommit to do but you realise how much fuel it wastes haha

[adamsax]

at the moment she has 14,213 miles.

That's nothing you big girl!

Mine is currently sitting at 60500 exactly and is sweet as a nut.

Milage means fook all if it's well maintained/looked after.

:Y:

Exactly! But people always assume the lower the mileage the better.

But to be fair low mileage suggests a car that has only been used for short journeys meaning the car hasn't warmed up properly. Not exactly good for the engine. Motorway miles are never a bad thing if the car has been looked after

Mine's a '99V and has just done over 75,000miles and I've not had any problems with the engine

**Goes and waits for engine to blow up because she has tempted fate**

[Amiee]

mines T an is on 72k... runs pretty nice :)

[tgazvtr]

ad you have a diesel! so your fuel bill must be really low!

i do on average 350-450 miles a week or £40-£50 a week. i hate doing loads of miles :(

[saxodan]

My dad gets a new company car every 4 years or 80k .. he reaches the 80k mark in about a year and a half :O

Right in a way, but then if you were buying a car would you rather buy one on 30k miles or 75k?! 30 i think

But then sayin its only used to short journeys means it may not of warmed up and damage the engine, thats just crap. I hardly ever use mine but its well maintained and cars all designed for short and long journeys, engine doesnt really take long to warm up either

[AdamW]

I drive about 10 miles a week.....plus if my missus was a 50 mile round trip...she would be the first to go.....

[Amiee]

thats erm lucky adam.. lol where do u go in that whole 10miles? its like 8 to my nearest town... bout 20 to work...

[Luke]

Agree with Yatesy on how quick engine warms up on a VTR.

My car has 14000 on it, she warms up within 5 minutes so it's not too bad really.

Cloud - Your car is due a service haha!

It was due one 8k miles ago lawl, Cammed VTR checked it over for me and its all fine. Just got to turn that little spanner off :P

[BruceybabyVTR]

Just reset the service light cloud.If it dont say it then it dont need one lmao

[CHowells]

I had my car in July 2005 it was about 24150 when i bought it, it is now 52500 miles, doesnt bother me as i know i have looked after it and serviced it so i "hope" it will do the same for me. My car is probably my main pass time if im bored i go out in the car, and as most of my friends live in nearby villages/towns i drive to see them its suprising how quick it clocks up. Also i did 17000 miles in the 6 months before that in my old saxo R.I.P
