I bought mine June 10th and now have 5015 miles, I drive it on the weekends due to a company car.
My wife bought her first one June 6th and traded it in December 22nd it had 21020 miles. her new one has 120 miles!
Wow, Don! That's cool! Wanda has 62K. But I've done some non-motoring air travel, and left her home alone for weeks at a time several times a year since her delivery date of 04/04/03.
Not many. Which is unfortunately the norm for my company cars...
... Just went to the garage and saw 251 on the odo. Took delivery on the 14th of last month and immediately went out to California for a coupla weeks.
Short commute combined with competitive cars passed around the office keeps my weekly mileage down on my company car. Last one, an Audi, was turned in after 30 months with a scant 8400 miles on the clock. Lot of overseas travel seemed to be the reason for even lower mileage than my norm.
Mileage accrual on the Mini should be higher than it was for the last car. Boss promised me I'd be spending less time in the aluminum tube this year.
I assume that the roadtrip to DC was for business? Otherwise, if it wasn't, why would any sane person do that??? Or do I assume too much???
When I was there for MTTS I had a great time motoring the streets of DC. Gotta love the goofy traffic circles. And parking was actually pretty easy. Granted it was early September.
Now all of that said, I must also admit that my sanity has been questioned many times .
Turned 50K last night going home. I inherited this vehicle from the Pres. of the company and it was his weekend toy. I expect the mileage to climb quick with me behind the wheel.
2003 MCS
I picked up my 2006MCS in late Nov. of 2005 in Indy. It now has 21,237 miles on and still going strong. Many trips back and forth to Indy from central Georgia. Only problem has been a bad run flat [replaced under warranty thanks to tire insurance] and two stone damaged wind screens[on me].
I have 17517 sitting on the ODO right now. Took delivery of my MCS in March of '06. He had 9 miles on his ODO when we picked him up, so that means 17508 smiles in the last 10 months.
