Default CGT miles

Well, it's been about a year since I got my CGT with 8,100 miles on the clock. It's such a thrilling car I've been driving it fairly often, but it's now getting dangerously close to that dreaded extra digit on the odometer. I guess it's time to cool it and let it become a garage queen now.

It makes sense why so many people own multiple CGTs.

Bought my car with 8k on the odo. Now at 13k+. An old hag now, I guess. Plus it got wet last weekend.

Should be beyond 40k in the next few months at which point it will be time to scrap it.

I fight myself on this issue constantly...it's an internal debate that drives us all mad.

In the end, it doesn't lose that much value to drive it vs keeping it super low. Just enjoy.

I love seeing these cars driven...I'll be doing the same with my 4.0. It'll be hitting the track in the fall.

Suggest drive and maintain CGT isn't going to increase $ it's hit the peak and the offset of the mechanics from a sitting CGT causes more damage to the internals I truly don't think there is a financial gain

Ferrari feather dusters have sprinkled their investment pixie dust ruining the entire premise of why these machines were produced and then they bitch about spending money on service to drive a car they barely drive. Like buying the exotic hooker to look at not that I would know

Yeah, if I'm spending top dollar for an expensive hooker I'm going to get my moneys worth for every second but that's just me.
