I am sure there is an equation somewhere whereby 1 topless mile = 10 top up miles; hence as long as the low mileage is topless, it is acceptable...

And if there isn't there should be!

 

it's easy to so few miles when you use a beater for the week....

around 96 'driving days' per year....of which some will be raining and I am doing 'family stuff'

On renewal I am insuring the car based on 2500 a year which is all I do in all honesty

I rarely if ever use the car roof up....most of the time it sits in the garage with the tonneau on and under a car cover

 

All top down, especially at night

Zero - is it a good idea to keep the roof folded for long periods?

I thought you started using the S for commuting, Zero?

If that's the case were your 1000 miles all done within a 3 week period?

I have a beater but I still use the S2000 for commuting when the weather's good. I've done about 3000 miles since mid November

 

yeah started using the s2000 for commuting.....had it serviced and then decided to use it weekends again

to be honest I got bored driving it....I prefer to keep it for occassional use to keep that special feeling

 

Bored! You have got to be joking Paul. I drove my car 22,000 miles in its first year and I don't even do 1 mile of commuting. I didn't even drive the car to Europe to add up those miles but not for one minute could I say I was bored.

Tired from cleaning the damn thing yes but never bored. This is one car where I enjoyed every minute of it and it is the only car I can say that about. I have driven plenty of nice sporty cars but I always got bored after owning them for 6-8 months but the S has that special something, something I just can't explain. Either it has it or it doesn't and the S really does.

 

I've done more than that since last weekend and I don't commute in it!

I thought you were one of the "Hardcore" Zero.

1000 miles in a year? Hardly worth Taxing it!

 

Same here. I hardly drive mine, like it when I do, get bored when too much but just cant sell the feckin thing coz its like the brother I never had.Its part of me but I should flog it I just can't manage to go through with it. Now I have a 20k Passat and a 25k S. Prolly spend 1500 a year on insurance for em, then 320 on tax - of which I put 10k on the dub and feck all on the S. Accept no immitations, I am a tw@t.
