Well if you work five days a week and don't take holiday 520 are to and from work.

Probably about 4,000? Meh I don't know. Somewhere in the middle :P

Don't worry about it. I surprised myself on my cars last MOT when I noticed 3,900 miles between them. I had the split second, buy something silly moment.

I still remember when my SiL was getting insurance quotes for her first car estimating 1000 miles a year. :rotfl:

I always say my estimated mileage is 10,000 miles a year, to be safe :P my quotes don't seem to change if I say lower :P


Anyway I am glad I have been slightly reassured. Last winter I was so nervous about driving I didn't notice the fuel! I still only fill up around once every 5 weeks so it shouldn't cost too much more

Fill up less often, help the mpg with less weight

I know but if you do 2000-4000 miles a year and 500 you don't mainly use it for work. You're killing your car.

OMG!! :rotfl: please explain?? :P


And I may be 'killing' my car..but I know my driving style doesn't do it any good. It works fine for me and I only bought it for a run around car anyway . I am not getting into that debate :P

I Will always follow advice from the manual or the Tyre fitting place I go to. If roads are too icy, I just won't drive. Work is a 10minute walk away, I would rather fall on my bottom than crash my car :P

If work is only a 10 minute walk away then why are you not walking everyday.
