  13. 848 2013 - 3300 miles
    speed triple - bought in 2010 with 3500 miles. Now up to a mere 11,000
    1993 vw polo coupe boulevard. Currently 37,000 miles. Bought from my wife's grandfather in 2005 who had it serviced at the same VW dealership he bought it from on the purchase anniversary! I bought it from him with with 13000 on the clock!

    trouble is because I work from home, I don't do any commuting mileage. All my miles are leisure miles. We also have a Skoda Octavia which my wife uses and is the family car.....I put miles on that going away at weekends.

  15. Its a cracking little car. Every now and then I think I want to get rid of it but its SO reliable and cheap to run.....its the motoring expense equivalent of carbon offset. I think I might be motoring neutral by now :biggrin:
