Default 50k.

From 26th May 09 till today, that’s how long it took to reach 50k from 4 miles delivery. It’s been fun.

Lucky to find a place to stop before it clicked over 1 more.

Work used to get in the way, and when I did approx 1k seek in my van, driving could be far from my thoughts when at home.

Nice work! The most I've ever done in one car is 40K (my current daily, over 5 years, and still going), and having just checked in order to renew my insurance, I've realised I've only done 1K in the S over the last 12 months - although for about half of that it was in the bodyshop.

(goes off to measure crank walk....)

I did 25k a year in my first S2000, between 2003-2005... But 50k, that's nice miles indeed. Before you know it, it's gonna be worth what you paid for it. That's the conundrum with these cars now - do we drive them or store them!!?!

We’re driving it but hoping it’ll last long after electric car D Day in 2030.

50k

Mine hit 80k the other day (got it on 35kish). Not bad for 15 years ownership, 10 nurburgring trips & many trackdays, considering it hasn’t seen rain for 10 years +
