Just wondering how many miles you guys have done this year or between last mot's.
My car just got mot'd last Monday and passed and i have done a grand 1200 miles, some of it due to a few car issues but mostly due to the ******* weather in this country.
I had 3 events planned for this year, did one, missed one due to gearbox fail and got rained of for the last, i hope this is not how its going to be next year. My car is pretty much getting tucked up for winter now i think
about 12 , to the bodyshop and back.. been fully insured for that time aswell.
Big fat zero :-( lol
lol, im doing pretty well then

Just over 2k since april,a quarter of that was a trip to manchester,she never skips a beat mine

If we get a nice day im going to have a run down to bluntys r/r day this month i think.
I bet no ones done over 5000 miles in their gt turbo.
Not this year but previous years i've sailed past the 5k mark,more like 15k
Hang on to that one then
i drive mine every day! i dont understand this "they're unreliable" lark?? i'd happily drive mine to china if the roads were availableHang on to that one then
Mine usually clocks just under 1000 miles a month. Once all the niggles at sorted I generally just fix wear and tear!
Strangely the 5 i clocked most miles in on the road the last 3 years was my old cup car....
The red 5 is now mot'd, insured just need to sort some tax for it & use it... Will be a daily driver come feb & i cant wait
Mines done a couple of hundred if im lucky lol.
Next year will be different tho. Gettin most bits sorted over winter so i can use it next year.
Less than 600 miles between mot's. Getting to the point were I cant justify keeping the old girl.
0.0
Done around 2000 miles :-)
same as last year.... 0
actually thats a lie, probably covered 1 mile with all the times i have pushed it in and out the garage
About 1,200 miles this year. I'd happily use it daily if it wasn't a chore moving other cars around to get him out.
It's been handy for when my 'reliable diesel daily' has been off the road, and it was my long distance eco car last year
-58k
0.9 mile
think its official im the rtoc most hardcore...bunch of poofs....
over 10'000 here...
none...
Last year I did about 8000 as it is my daily driver. But this year it spent nearly 6 months in the Bodyshop so had to resort to public transport
Catching up now its back though.
about 1500 in orange one
900 in the tungy
10k in my clio dci tho, and i did 10k last year in my old raider
2000 odd since my rebuild a few months ago. use her as a daily at the minute but if i keep her i want her tucked away for the winter.
same as last year.... 0

Best answer yet
Im annoyed because its the weather that pretty much hinders me, i get up check the weather via my i phone, then asses the situation whilst walking the dog, then check the weather on the tv at 7.30 just before i leave
The only water my car will see is the jet wash, never mind
Oh and my convertibles done prob 5 miles in about 6-8 years lol.
Then again my m3s only done 10k in 10years
And thats my everyday car so to speak lol. My vans so nice i use that all the time lol.
Sounds familiar.. The Met office website is the reason my 5's in the car park at work today.Im annoyed because its the weather that pretty much hinders me, i get up check the weather via my i phone, then asses the situation whilst walking the dog, then check the weather on the tv at 7.30 just before i leave

My J reg has done 0 miles since 1999, still run it up now and again though
And i've definetly covered over 1000 miles in the last 12 months with only a couple of minor troubles.
I have managed a bit fat ZERO in mine since 2005!!
And its been insured for two of those years between 2005 and now....how rubbish am I!!!!
81.1 miles covered this year - All at the National Day. Bringing the grand total to, 2163 miles!
This year = 0
Year before = 0
Year before that = 0
Will I sell it? Will I bollocks.
nil, but only cus i only bougth it 2 weeks ago and im getting it ready for MOT :P
scraps 1200 with speedo only working part time
whitey 5000 ish
How many years has it taken to clock 2163 mr pussy cat?
When Mart and I first got it, it had 44 miles on the clock. That was around 2004/5 ish (I think

i try this only to find it will start to rain as i get to work
wot a bunch of strange people...
I have done about 20 runs at pod, plus drove it there and back once and been out two or three times looking for some expensive cars to embarrass, ohh and did 400 miles of working the new engine in.
So that's almost my 1500 insurance miles per year done, must get it out at least one more time before the tax runs out
I actually used my gtt as an everyday car for almost 5 years, never ever let me down! Broke a few times but always made it home
Looking back I'm not sure how i managed, driving a nice modern car as a daily hack showed me how expensive and hard work they are as an everyday car.
Done 2500 in raider so far,normally do around 3000 a year,didnt miss a beat on 421 miles in 36 hours for trip to alton towers,soon be tucked up for winter,done whole 16 miles in the 11 turbo,-most of that to mot station!lol
i do around 3000 a year with mine.But find it hard to get time as family takes up a lot of it and work seems to consume the rest.I've not been to a national day for two years or le'mans for 3
Sorry to say over 10htousand, only thrown two fan belts,
Most reliable car ive had. Wasnt meant to be my daily, but had to get rid of my old daily because of new arrival. Fancing a mazda 3 MPS now, Give the ol 5 a break
