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.
Quite. I used to drive between 12 and 20k km a year which has dropped to around 3k because I no longer commute and the core family lives in the same area.
I have had my Dmax for 10 years, it has done 150,000km so about 15,000km per year.
I tend to do more miles than Kms
How quaintly retro.
at my last yearly service my car had done 6,000 miles, lowest ever, even when i first retired i was still doin around 15000 miles a year
At my wife’s last yearly service she had only done 3000 miles
makes you wonder why we still have two cars, think its called independence
Had my car from new for nearly three years ( July) done just over 21,000 miles…
Back in my working and earning days it was not unusual for me to do 25,000 to 35,000 km a year. Or more in the years I worked in sales. Now I can steadily predict my car usage.
2 trips per week to the shops - 50 km in total
2-3 weekly trips to nearby villages to meet friends - 50 km in total
So far, 5,000 km a year.
Add on monthly trip to bigger town for bigger shops - 120 km - another 1,400 km a year.
5-6 trips to airport to pick up visitors or for own travel - 1,500 km a year
I think that might be it, so about 8,000 km a year.
When I was working, I was easily doing 35,000 miles / 56,300 km a year. My cars were on a five year lease, but exceeded their working mileage after four. Now I have retired, I’m down to about 6,000 miles /9,600 km a year, most of that is just local stuff as I hardly drive any distance these days. My wife bought her own car the same time as mine and has barely done a total of 12,000 miles /19,300 km in four years and nearly all of that was when she was looking after her father. Since he passed a few months ago, she barely drives it at all.
I purchased my present motor in May 2024 with 7,000 miles on the clock, it’s now 18,563 miles so probably between 6 and 7 thousand miles per year…But it was a slack year last year.
