The posts per mile ratio would certainly be a record.

it's a case of time more than anything but also saving on the petrol too

I am doing less hours now so having to cut costs accordingly

In the 9000 miles I have had the car I've had to buy 3 new sets of rears and two fronts

Based on the PPD figure and a year for 1000 miles, you're averaging 4.9 posts per mile driven, or approximately a post every 300 metres.

Paul, since I am waiting for my car to arrive I would be happy to take this off your hands and drive it around. You don't have to pay the fuel or insurance anymore. Interested?
