Mine are not garage queens either:
Excellent !- My V12V now has over 55.000 kms on it (in almost 4 years)
- The V12VR is just over 29.000 kms now (in 1.5 year)
I'm on about 14k miles in my V12VR in a similar period but have an overseas trip coming up in Sept so should get pretty close !
So good to see them being used

My V12VR is now on 10.5k miles after 14 months and I too have another 2k+ mile trip coming up in Sept. I sure I've seen that IANV12VR has a good mileage on his too, so the V12VR's are getting used I'm on about 14k miles in my V12VR in a similar period but have an overseas trip coming up in Sept so should get pretty close !

Yep, mine went over 9k miles at the weekend and with what I have planned and our September trip should be at around 13k by her second birthday in November. So much for trying to keep the mileage down to 5k a year but there are just too many excuses to take her out. Only solution to keep the mileage down would be to get another one By the way is every V12VR away on its hols in September? I know that the lovely Sunburst yellow one is because we are on the same trip!
Also looking forward to seeing your Tungsten V12VR at Burghley Shrek

Unfortunately I'll be at Silverstone for the Classic on Sunday so can't do Burghley which I think some are at
My September trip starts on the 6th IIRC, which starts in Lucerne, then Dolomites, Northern Italy for a few days including either a Mugelo or Imola trackday (I've not decided which but they both are limited to 40 odd cars and have no noise limits !! ), Ferrari Factory tour and Lake Como, then Alps back through to Germany then home........
A few of us (there will be about 10 cars on the trip in total) are looking into having our cars transported on a shared covered transporter to Stuttgart where I could fly to and save 830 very boring miles of mainly motorway driving, plus saved fuel costs, hotel & Eurotunnel which I think may outweigh the cost of the transporter & a cheap flight to Germany
Very much looking forward to this one.........

Nice idea on the transporter
I managed 950 miles in one day from Andermatt to Home via tunnel

Slightly off topic but this is too good not to share :-)
This V12 is most probably the queen of all garage queens. 1,004 miles in 19 years !!!!!
