Hey guys! Just wondering how many miles you put on your first year! Once i take delivery in like 6 weeks I will have a little over a year left of school. So I will be commuting to work and school for a year and estimate the mileage at 25k maybe more for the first year! Anyone put on that much or more during the first year?

 

I did about 11,000 in the first six months but a lot of people do way more than that. Just enjoy it, try not to worry about racking up the miles

 

16,400

 

uhh I'm at 23 750 miles and well its been seven months

 

First MINI: 12,600 in 2.5-3 months.
Second MINI: 5600 in 4 months... (but with a month or so in the paint shop and 3200 of those miles were done in the first 2 weeks.... and the other 2200 were done in January...)

 

2 weeks short of a year = 24,232

 

17k

 

10,400 since 3/20/05

 

22 months, 32K miles, so about 17K a year.

 

16 Months = 26,456

 

approx 6k or so

 

about 28000 miles....

 

First birthday is April 15, and I'll definitely hit 20K . It's not a commuter and I also own a Ford Escape and a Harley.

I just can't keep out of it.

 

I didn't drive much.. got about 9k miles on 1st yr.

 

It'll be a yr next month, bought my MCS with 6k miles on it... now have 32k miles. So about 26,000 miles a yr for me!
and I Love every mile with my MCS. And now this spring i will be starting my mods and upgrades, which will equal an InSanE amount of miles... i think i'll even be driving in my sleep....

 

I've done that, how should I count those miles ?

 

30k in 12months

 

You guys are nuts.

 

I'm at around 18500 now at ~10 months... I imagine I'll be in the 20 to 25k group.

 

3k in my first month!!

 

At 1 year I had ~20K miles, but ~16K of those were put on in the first 5 months. Then we traded in our truck for a Scion xB and that became the vehicle we took on trips and one of us is always driving it while the other one drives their 'fun' car to help save miles them. The Scion is 8 months old and has ~25K on it already

 

I swore I would never buy my son a car when he was 16. But when I decided I had to have a MINI, I got one. He was only 8 at the time, so I put it in the garage, covered it up, and left it there.

Since that time I have come to my senses, discovered MINI5280, AMVIV, the Dragon, MitM, and more.

Pushing 30k now, 3 years later.

JPS

 

30,000 in the first 12 months. At 15 months I'm now at 38,500.

 

Some of you seem to have really serious commutes!

 

About 14,000 the first yearand curretly have 28,000.
