Work is 88 miles a day x 5 = 440
Random/Casual Mileage= Approx 20
Colchester to Liverpool and back on Saturday= 520 mile round trip

Same work and casual last week= 460
Colchester to Bolton and back last Saturday= 530 mile round trip

990 miles last week
980 miles this week

Usual mayhem. Poor old car

Probably when I went down to Devon a couple of months ago, 180 miles each way plus a fair bit of driving around whilst I was down there, so let's say 500 miles probably

Busiest week I remember mileage wise was
Monday - 60
Tuesday - 30
Wednesday - 450
Thursday - 400
Friday - 230
Saturday - 0
Sunday - 200

About 1370 total, that was the week I realised just how much I love driving, and apart from about 200 miles on the Friday it was all done in a stripped out Corsa with a loud exhaust and bucket seats

I may have done more since but I remember that week just being madness roughly 27 hours of driving

+1 Its a ritual you have to go through as a man when you first pass your test to drive everywhere for no reason

We barely cover 500 miles a month, doesnt really make sense having a diesel

My record stands at 450 in a day.

I normally do about 40-50 in a day, 300-450 a week, totally varies.
