    Only put about 6,000 miles in total on my (3) e30's. Drive a company vehicle so I don't use them that often. I can PU things that I need on my way home so getting parts or drinks can be done at that same point... I do miss driving them more often.

      My commute is relatively short, so around 5k-6k including just going for random drives. If things are in relatively short distance away, I bike or walk.

      Keeps the miles off the vert and keeps me in shape.

          Short commute but I do take trips in the summer so around 6k/year. The car has almost 200k. I wish I were putting more miles on it

            Haven't been driving with a working odometer long enough to have a good yearly number, but I've been putting almost 200mi/week on it since I fixed it.

              Since it's not on DD duty anymore not much. Probably around 10K.

                I would probably average about 16k a year if it would stop breaking down.... :(

                    When the 318i was the only car I had I was putting over 15k on it per year for a couple of years, and as I slowly added cars the mileage went down, and down, and then suddenly up as those cars all broke at once, and then down again. I hope that as I shed cars the mileage will go up, and up as I truly love the broken in shoe feel of that little thing.

                    All this and the odometer still reads 168k and change. /lazy on that one front

                        Best part of having a fresh motor is putting all those miles on it!

                            about 20k miles a year. 15k in commuting alone. Probably another 5k on top of that.

                            But I picked up an e36 4 months ago. So probably less than 5k from now on.
