#1 Yearly mileage... In your E

What sort of mileage do you do in your E :auto:

Is this high or low, been asked by the insurers but difficult one to answer but obviously makes a lot difference :smoke:

Lets see who the polishers :wink: are and who the posers :drive: are....

#6 how many miles

Post by Larry Wade » Fri Jul 17, 2009 6:08 am

You are completely correct. I know people with a bunch of incredible cars. They often get to drive each one a couple times a year at most. Don't forget the time and money to keep them all on the road.

I think that one or two cars are plenty. In fact one is the most that I can keep on top of. It makes more sense, to me, to rotate cars over the years than it does to own a whole bunch (unless you can afford to have top grade mechanics to keep them ready and at your beck and call).

Enjoy your new car!!
