I am a newish owner as well, buying my 09 C4S at the end of May this year. I have only put on about 3000 miles and frankly feel like I am not doing the car justice with my mostly very short daily commutes. It is going to be a nice weekend so I am planning to get some of the cobwebs out. I am starting to think there is no such thing as driving these cars too much - they are too fun to drive.

The one I just bought has 82K on the clock and will have 3,100 more after the drive home from CA. I'll probably max at 5K a year though. I just don't understand how you could manage less without driving the car at all, and then what's the point?

When I picked it up in June at Zuffenhausen, Germany, it had about 4 miles or 7 kms on it. Today, about 9.5 years later, it sits with 97,800.

These are terrific cars which need to be driven. Park it and you will have issues.
