How many KM have you done in the past year?
The AU got serviced this time last year with 76000km on the clock, i had a look on the odo and it now reads 81500km.. So thats only 5500km in the past year, pretty good huh? |

I'm suprised that a lot of people can get over 50,000 in one year. It has taken me 3 years to do 50,000, and I always thought I did a fair bit of driving. (I did over 600kms per week in 2003).

I'm amazed at what some of these taxis do. After recently being in an AUII taxi, it had done 750,000kms. It would be a 4 or 5 year old car by now, but to do 550,000 kms more than a car 10 years older is just amazing.

My Au has just over 66,000 kms on it, it will be 7 years old in Sept and my GT-P has 18,000 on the clock and it will be 2 in Sept. Hubbys Pajero does around 45,000 ks a year.

Back and forth from work - 50km each way = 100 km * 5 days a week = 500 km a week + extra weekend travel, about 550-600 km a week. Multiply by 52...
31,000 kays a year. Dammit, I have to move closer to work.

About 10,000km. Mileage dropped a fair bit when the blower went on (20L/100km average with ultimate @ $1.25/L - who would have thought?!?!?!).
Also a few periods where she was off the road for a few weeks whilst i fumbled my way through repairs on the weekends....

35,000 klms in one year, pretty good for a p-plater eh.
I Only have had the Avalon 8 weeks and have already knocked up 8,000 klms. I expect to do even more now because it is a 50klm commute each way to University.
