Driving Time

And that means I’ve had the car for 5½ years, too – since March 2007 in fact. In that time I’ve done 121,000 miles, a surprisingly round average of 22,000 miles a year. I’ve had really two years which have exploded that average – the year I was commuting Norfolk->Cambridge on a daily basis, and the last twelve months with the daily Suffolk->London round trips, followed by Suffolk->Luton round trips. With things being a bit more stable (and nowhere near as distant) I’m hoping the next 12 months will have a much lower average. After all, my current commute works out as sub-10,000 miles for the year, which is pretty novel by itself.
Doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun?
