So you have a 260 mile daily commute and you drive 670 miles each day at the weekend?

Daily is an 08, so approx 6 years and 9 months old. 90k miles
Weekend is an 89, 25 years old, I think it's still under 60k miles.

My car is almost ten years old, by registration date.

2005 Honda Civic 1.6 SPORT V-TEC

68900 miles, seems to settle at about 46 mpg (bit lower in town, bit more on motorways). My first car, been really good over the last 20 months / 24,000 miles (the time i've owned it). Serviced it today (oil and filter, plugs) followed by an MoT. Nothing wrong with it apart from requiring a clutch replacement (parts bought already, just need time and an experienaced hand to fit it...)

Got a 1999 suzuki SV650s motorcycle too, 74,000 miles or so on it. That's alright too although it can be a bother to get started this time of year when left standing for a couple of weeks.

Surprised at the results, thought there would be newer cars to be honest especially since out of the road it is full of them.

Mine's 20 months old and has covered 12.5k. But I expect to run it until it will run no more; I buy as ex demo and keep.

Polls are usually skewed as only those wanting to "show off" will usually respond. In this case there seems to be a clamour to show who has the oldest daily driver.

Mines 6 years old. I'm getting soft, I don't really enjoy older cars any more unless they're very special and only driven for short periods or special occasions.

Only car from new year will be my 1999 E39 M5 with 146k miles
