I only put 3k on the MG this summer; half what I normally do, and was feeling like I really didn't get much use out of it!

You can do better next year. You don't want to have a garage queen, I know that!

You and a few others, need to get out more.

We put approx 6K on the P car, cruising on weekends, and we took it on two road trips. The S probably has been driven 3K or more since April or May as it became a daily driver. It still gets plenty of and sometimes it's still the cruising car, just because it's fun!

I may only have put around 500 miles on it this year. It's just not worth the aggravation to use it for work commuting.
The SL will take up that load.

26 miles of stop and go to 70 to stop and go to 70 to stop and go. great way to just trash a clutch.
all the time crawling next to the moron in the 18 wheeler who doesn't want to wear out his brakes and exclusively uses the brahhhhh blap blap blap of the jake brake.

The SL, on the other hand, is an automatic. I can be lazy.
