Another mileage thread!
« on: 15 February 2008, 11:49 »
What sort of weekly mileage are you guys doing in your MKII's?

Mine's my daily hack so I'm averaging about 250 miles a week at the moment. Some weeks can be as high as 1000 if I have to go to a couple of meetings at customers places.

250-300 every week although I brought the van to work today as I start to feel sorry for it if it's sits on the drive unused for too long.

12 x 2 = 24 x 5 = 96 just to work and back each week, then the usual run arounds on the weekends so probably about 120 - 150 miles a week.

If only there was public transport to where I work... it would defo keep the mileage down  :grin:

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

I always get roped into the ol tip runs aswell, had to take a load of stuff the other week. Ended up picking up a mattress from somebody, didn't see the spring sticking out of the side of it until I was sliding it in the back a put a massive rip in the headlining :(
