What do you use yours for?....
« on: 01 April 2008, 16:49 »
Just wondering how many Mk1's are still performing daily driving duties or are they mostly weekend cars?

Only use mine when it's raining and can't be bothered to cycle to work, and for pottering around at weekends, but up until 2005 it was used nearly every single day for 8 years. Hence the mileage.

Used to be a daily driver...now she's lucky if shes on the road six months a year..although does help keep the mileage down, the salt off my bodywork and she gets serviced about every 3k (service before shes comes back on the road)
