Default Super Garage Queens !!

A funny thing happened to me tonight. I was going through my paper work tonight and realized that I hardly drove my car.

In the last four years I have driven 6000 klm (3750 miles )

Thats about 1500 klm per year....how sad is that???

The funny thing is that now I can say

I do oil changes every 1500 klm....

And detail + wax my car every 500 klm........

Does anyone else here drive less then this???

AL

Goodness me. I drive mine over 10,000kms per year and woe betide anyone who'll try and stop me. I'll never be without a 964.

7,500 to 10,000 miles usually. Hard time getting there this year due to "mechanical" glitches in my upgrades

Not by design, but I only drive my Targa about 1,500 kms per year as well
Most w/ends I'm up at the cottage and I don't drive the "p" to work. I often take the GO train, so even my dd sees only about 10k per year.
The FX50, which goes up north and is my bride's dd sees about 40-45K per year ... mind you with 390 hp on tap it's not too too tough to take

Had the car since 2000 but in the last 2.5 years........0km! BUT I'm only hours away from geting it runing again. It will purr by the end of the long weekend. Then it's time to terrorize the neighbourhood.

Just coming up on 2 years in mid august and currently have 21,000km. The car is driven every two weeks or so and is not a daily driver by any stretch. I think the majority of km are from driving to/from the track and on the track itself. Dealership was saying that this is one of the highest mileage 997 GT3's around.

Wow..i thought i was bad.

~5000kms a year for the last 4 years. This year i tried to say to hell with it and drive as much as i want, but then house renovations started and its been stuck in the garage for the most part so i'm STILL only at 4000kms. Will probably put on about 6000-7000 this year.

Come on Al! drive her! You've got the fastest color too
