How many had yours done?

[brilie]

Hi all,
First the good news,my zed went straight through M O T
No advisories just comments on how good condition she was in
But couldn't help but notice how many miles I haven't done this last year!!!
1700 miles is all I have done!!! Just about exactly the same as the previous
Year.thought I had done a lot more than that but cannot argue with the mileage,
The question is,Am I the norm ?? Or does everybody do a lot more?.
I know a few people do a lot less but I bought the car to drive as well as love!!
How many have you done???
Cheers Brian

5300 miles in last year, at my last fuel stop.

 

[john1534]

Around 3000 in a full year. Not main car.

 

[Kevlaar]

only just had mine and only done about 100 miles so far but makes me smile when i do drive it.last owner did 1600 miles according to last mot.

 

[POG]

About 6,000 for me last year.... A couple of weeks ago it clocked up 50,000 mile...

 

[brilie]

Just clocked 70000 in mine,not bad for a 15 year old car
At this rate it will be about twenty year before I hit 6 figures

 

[Shelly]

We used or Z everyday
We clock up a few miles a year
Will check tomorrow what we're done
But I think it will be a lot

 

[billz]

We have done around 14k in the last 2 years but 4k was when we went to Europe in it in 2013. So i would say we are doing around 5k a year

 

[oldcarman]

Have done about 1800, 200 this year and 1600 in the few month I could drive it last year! JIM

 

[brilie]

Looks like I should get out more!
It is used as a second fine weather car but
Is this a sign of sh.. Summers?

 

[t-tony]

Yes, you should get out more Brian, as always, in your Z.

Definitely Brian, I did just over 5,000 in 2013 and 6,800 last year, you've got a lot of catching up to do

Dead right Dave!!problem is work gets in the way
But now your mileage will be halved will it not

 

[Mint]

But now your mileage will be halved will it not

Yes, I think the mileage will halve on the 3 but the overall mileage will be the same but split across the 3 and the 4

This is why I kept the 2.0l after buying the M. - the 2.0l is a car I can bang the miles on in summer if needed/wanted for work or nipping to Tesco in without worrying. The m is more of the treat car.....

Yes, I think the mileage will halve on the 3 but the overall mileage will be the same but split across the 3 and the 4

It might double in a few short hours

 

[ZTec]

90,000 in 18 years, not all by me.

I bought my Zed in 2008 with 21,000 miles on the clock. She has now done 96,000 but in the last year ( since I retired) only 5,000. I have an E46 compact as a workhorse now but cannot resist getting the Zed out often.

 

[t-tony]

cannot resist getting the Zed out

Just as it should be. The thing I love the most is when you leave work at the end of the day, not too happy, most days. You sit in the car, drop the sun visors, unlatch the soft top, put your foot on the brake and press the switch. Then, the smile starts, as the top folds down the smile spreads across your mush, and you pull out into the traffic and watch the poor people who don't have a convertible and you feel sorry for them. NOT !!

Tony.

My clock hit the 130,000 mark today, from what I remember it had about 86,000 on it when I purchased it 5 years ago this week
