My Mini used to be my DD, and I had a beater for snowy days and trips to nyc. Now that my commute went from 10 miles to about 30, i replaced the beater with a 95 Saab 900 turbo for commuting to keep the miles off the MINI. It's comfortable, gets about 25mpg, and scoots pretty good with a tuned ecu running 20psi! It handles like crap, tho. The MINI now comes out mainly on weekends, and now that I have a garage space in my building, it doesn't even need to see rain.

 

My DD is a ford focus zx3 and my mini only comes out when its nice out or I want to have some fun!

 

Every Day, Every Time, Top Down, and lovin' it! Own 5 cars and THIS is my ride.

 

the MINI is my DD. My old Trooper is my surfing van. I used motorcycles heavily for 20 years. During that time, my autos received very little mileage

 

I recently bought mine used for DD. However 80% of the mileage has been spent in traveling to the dealer. So far my motoring experience goes like
1. take it to the dealer for repair;
2. take it out for a brief test drive;
3. make another appointment or order some parts;
4. the car sits pretty in the garage for two weeks while waiting for the appointment/parts.
5. goto 1.

I don't feel relying on it yet. Hopefully the shakedown process will be completed soon.

 

Our 03 Cooper is the wife's DD for Spring through Fall.
During Winter time or when it snows, it's my turn to drive it and she will then use the Honda Odyssey. In the meantime, the daily driver for me is a 93 miata and the M3 is the garage queen.

 

Mine is my DD. My last MINI was my DD. My wife has a Honda Element that is her DD and we use it when we need to haul something around.

 

mini dd for my wife mine is a factory five cobra replic in the summer and a yukon when the weather is bad

 

Same here.

Rain / sleet / snow, road trips and daily driving, hot rodding / cruising / cleaned up and stepping out, the MINI has been the best car I've ever owned.

 

Cassie is my DMM (daily motoring machine). Our other car (actually my wife's) is also a MINI.

 

I have an '07 Colorado Crewcab that is my off-road, winter, and hauling vehicle; a '89 red 'vette convertible for sunny Sundays, my '03 MCS for fun and an '07 HD StreetBob for that open feeling just about anytime.

My Wife's DD is an '07 Nissan Murano.

I drive what fits me for the day--best of all worlds...

 

My 2004 MCS JCW is my toy. I have a 1999 F350 turbo diesel with 380,000 miles on it as my DD and a 2008 F250 TD as backup. These are heavy duty tow vehicles for an excavation service, miles rack up quickly.

 

Hopefully all those miles are on Business fuel.

'02 is my DD and also my hobby. Improvements must all occur before the next business day.

 

Daily driver, 120 miles per day, 5 days per week.

 

I have a 2003 AE Corvette vert that used to be my DD. Since getting the Mini it has become the DD.

 

Yes, I use my MCS as my daily driver during the week (70 miles round trip/day) and errand mobile over the weekend.

 

Our DD out of 3 vehicles and I wouldn't have it any other way, well except maybe another MCS so we wouldn't have to race to the garage to see who gets to drive the it to work that day.

 

Mine is my DD. I wouldn't have it any other way. I have a 13-mile commute (one way) and look forward to driving my Mini each day. We own three cars (Mini, MazdaSpeed3, older Ford Escape), and a motorcycle. My husband drives either the Mazda or the bike. My step-daughter drives the Escape to the high school because we don't want any of our "nice" cars that we really like going there. The Mini is MINE.

 

my sole source for my 63 mile roundtrip commute from Katy to where I work.
My wife drives the truck ( 2 accidents 1 being a roll-over) she feels much safer in a dodge ram with armor than Mojo.

 

Yep, my MINI is my Daily Driver. Wouldn't have it any other way.

 

#1 and only one car. Daily commute is 100 miles or 5,000 miles a month.

 

My baby is strickly for weekends, I have a KIA Reo to get to work and
back(124 miles round trip) and a older Chevy S-10 pickup for hauling
stuff, etc.

 

DD.

I love my mini!

 

split use between a 07 Kia Sportage and the Mini

 

MCS is my DD, BUT when it is paid off, I would like to get a super high MPG for my DD and semi-retire the MCS to the exalted position of "fun car". I'll see what is available when the time comes.
