Any idea how many km/miles you drive in your vehicle each year?

[Bretrick]

When I bought my vehicle in April 2024, there was 50,987 km on the clock.
Two years old, so 25,493 km a year.
I have owned the vehicle for 21 months. 77,130km on the clock.
Works out at 14,938 km a year.

Not a lot of driving for you then.

I bought my car with 2,900 miles in February of last year. I now have just over 6,000 miles. By my calculations, I will drive 3,400 miles per year. This will likely be my last car.

Very little driving these days then.

We get an insurance discount if we drive less than 5000 km per year. You take a photo to prove the mileage. Last year it was 3000 kms.

I bought a new car in July and just hit 750 miles yesterday.

Most of my driving is recreational/unnecessary.

It would be a much better value for me to switch to home delivery of groceries and purchase my transportation by the ride using Uber or Lyft.

A car is so much more than transportation.

I bought my car in 2021 and it had 17,000 miles on it. I've had it five years and I'm sitting on 49.000.

I bought my car new in 2002. It has a little over 78,000 miles on it.

I said when I retired I wasn’t coming off this hill unless have to……

I bought my car in July, and I;ve done just over 1000 miles... That's very unusual for me, but there's been various reasons for it..... including being unable to drive for about 8 weeks due to injury

Anyway..I do find now that the traffic has increased to such a level now.. that it's not a pleasure as I've always found it to be... in driving any more...

There's a huge difference in driving in wide open space like America and Austrlaia, compared to dring in overcrowded narrow tiny roads in the UK....

I hear you. A drive down the way here could be a 400km round trip, encountering little traffic.
I remember one trip, returning from Goblin Swamp to Busselton, approximately 130km, 80 miles, I never had a vehicle behind me for the whole trip.
Even I was amazed at that.

That would be absolute heaven for me......

My car and I are of a similar age, given my aches and pains I would
say that the car has faired far better at getting old than I have.
