12 days and 1200 miles

Well, I've been driving the clubman for 12 days now. Clocked just about 1200 miles. Love it more today than even 12 days ago.

What's so hard about putting on 100 miles? It's pretty easy, imo, to drive 100 miles a day. I know my gf does 110ish miles per day pf just commuting to work and back..

I only put on 24 miles a day for my commute to work, but had put on over 1500 miles in the first 6 days of ownership and if you add up all the miles i have done (31K in 18 months) you will find 100 miles a day is very easy. I will be heading out to North Carolina from Massachusetts in a couple of day for a round trip of at least 2200 mile in 5 days.

An average of 100 miles a day over the life of your car is not hard to obtain, but a regular commute of 100 miles a day is pretty astonishing cuz that's a lotta driving. But hey, in a Clubman, I'd look forward to it.
