37 mpd but in reality it's more like double that (74) due to the amount of time the car is garaged due to turbo related maintenance.

700 days of ownership
10,000 miles = 14.3 miles/day

However, if I subtract "stored for the winter" days it comes to about 25

I drive it as often as I can so basically anytime unless there is snow or ice on the roads. I have a 150 mile round trip commute when I do go into the office which is every other day or so. Driving the S makes that commute enjoyable, especially if I take 'the long way' to work

I love it .... so only if I buy a brand new one ... it's perfect for the blow off valve

Giles,

Now that the hood is nice and shiny I think it's worth more than what Jeff sold it to you at.
