• I don't get the obsession with low mileage? Like buying a bike then not riding it.

    Pretty sure 80's GC Dad's would be bragging about how many miles their motor had done, not how little. Admittedly cars were solid objects then, not made of plastic & cheese with lashings of planned obsolescence.

    I do, we don’t use our car for short trip and keep it for long trip such as going to Sheffield which work out cheaper than the trains by only using it 2-3 times a year.

    It also means less parts to wear out, pass MOT regularly, etc.

    TL:DR, we have a car cause it’s cheaper than taking long distance trains.

  • So just to be clear, you own a car for 3 return trips to Sheffield pa?

    Definitely golf club.

  • Our car sits idle most of the time, it's a 53 plate with 100,000+ on the mileage mostly from previous careful owner who did lots of trips between London & Honiton.
