Mileage report (who is driving)

Let's see who is actually enjoying their JCW. I am sad to say work has kept me out of the drivers seat of my new MINI.

Current Mileage: 88 since taking delivery 5 days ago

Where are you guys at?

48 hours of ownership... 250 miles!

So far I think that leads for the most per day average

hate to burst your burble, but that is not gotham grey interior.

Delivery 10/4- only 85 miles but 18.5 mpg so some very spirited driving in those miles.

2009 John Cooper Works Brake Recall

Maybe yours are OK. Hard to tell from the picture, but they seem like they might be a bit small.

I averaged 32.3 mpg which I thought was good considering most of the trip was above 80 mph. I've been used to 10 mpg for so long with my H2 this kind of mpg feels odd. Needless to say that monster stays in the garage.
