Got to stop driving my Ro putting on mileage

[snowwolf]

Since I got my car on the 10th of Oct 2009 I am adding a 1000 miles a month!!! and that includes the snowy weather when I didnt use it!

what is anyone else averaging? I hope the novelty is gonna wear off, but I dont think it will

2.5k since collection - 24th September. 600 per month?

12.350 in 3 years ..about 4k to get mods

Mines my daily driver and my only motor.....just under anywhere between 7 - 10K a year.

Love every mile

[snowwolf]

I just love driving it, any excuse to be out

[snowwolf]

As soon as the better weather comes I am driving down to Cornwall, I just love that drive, done it so many times on fast bikes and cars but cant wait to do it in the Ro

is a top drive i did cornwall to chatham and back a few years ago to pick up my then girlfriend in one night once. Wont say how fast i was travelling but the turbo on my escort fell off the following morning as it had got so hot

[snowwolf]

LOL probably was not the only thing that got hot!!

I just love the kent to cornwall drive, once your off the M25 everything just goes ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh heaven

[Ciscas]

I know what you mean about mileage having done 2 services since October. 15K miles since Early August - ouch

[J. J.]

Change your name! with Snowolf you dont stand a chance!

(I only took mine out last weekend for a run after about 4 weeks on the drive - I've been really busy, but it was great!)

Ive been doing 13K a year but im driving to the Algarve in July 2010 and back up the east coast of Spain on the way back. Should be a nice 4K drive by the time i get home.

And i have worked out im going to use about £750 of go go juice for the whole trip

Should be a good road trip

Maybe this summer we should have a roadtrip

Had the car 18 months now....done about 14k. It's my daily driver but it hasn't even got 20,000 on the clock yet which isn't bad for an 05 Ro. I'm paranoid about it starting to go rusty now though - but it's still squeeky clean when i wash it!

[neiljohnson]

You bought it to drive it, i really wouldnt worry about stacking up the miles. Ive done 50k in my Focus in the past 4 years & loved every minute if i had not driven it it may have been worth a bit more to sell but i really dont care, ive had my moneys worth out of it!!!

Daily driver here - 2,000 miles a month - around 55,000 from new to date.

You guys should get out more.....

[r-kid]

Owned it for 6 months & I've clocked up 10k already.

I agree, 46000 miles in two years. Sometimes I wash it.
