Somewhere in the 300,000k/m region. Gets to be a bit of a drag sometimes.

I do about 30,000km a year, I think with the Pintara I did 54000km in 22 months (between getting my licence back and getting rid of the car). Only had the EF a couple of months, and has only been registered 6-7 weeks, and put about 4500km on it...

I only have to drive to Uni and work and they are both very close to where i live, i do a fair bit of driving on saturday nights so that clocks up ths K's.
I do about 350K's per week which works out to being about 18500 per year. |

25k per year, I like to go on a road trip every year. Last year was adelaide to darwin, and back! not sure about this year. I'd ask for suggestions, but that will ruin your thread.
