Who here on NAM has the highest mileage on their MINI?

Well I'd be in contention for miles per day as I crossed 25500 tonight after 8 months. Runnning pretty smoothly, I've got a dozen things that need a little bit of tweaking but all is good, and we've even had our fisrt track day

Sure! Change the rules! Just cause WingNut is drunk, lets "toy with him". Just great. Thanks a bunch.




...btw, the above is just a joke.

There are a number of people who have gone over the 100K mark and their MINIs are fine! dpilgrim from FL was the first and MINIUSA gave him a special badge to commemorate it.

Well I'm sure going to find out how many miles you can get out of a MINI I do about 25,000 miles a year and I will probably need to keep this car 6 to 8 years. I do mixed driving city and hi way And driven aggresivly when it's safe to do so. So the MINI will definitely be put to the test.

We.ve had our 05 MC for 15 months and just flipped 43,000 miles this week. My wfe drives the MINI about 120-150 miles a day for work and loves every minute of it.
