Back OT...

Mine's a daily driver and gets about 8K a year put on it. I try to use Wifey's car as much as possible at this time of year as I don't have winter tyres on mine, and to be fair, I'd rather steer clear of posting in the Thread of Doom.

Come the summer though, the S is our main mode of transport, and the Clio sit's on the drive.

It's fuel usage that counts, not miles!

The previous and original owner of my car had it for 3 years, 2,000 miles

Great result for me though
The previous owner of mine, a Vernet ******* of Grimsby (womens name?), owned my car for 1 year (whole of 2009) and did..... wait for it..... 250 miles. Thats it. Maybe she popped her clogs??

Gosh, thought mine was low. When I bought it in 2008 it had 10K on the clock for an 05 plate. Benefit is I only do about 8k a year so it will always be below average mileage. That is if I don't start doing loads more Euro Hoons!

I'll take the heat off you, not used mine since Brands Hatch last October. Only done 250 miles since last service Sept 09 5.5 years old and 13k miles.

I know not good, but this year I'm going to rack the miles up.
