Bought a beater for the bad weather (8 mile commute) all 54 BHP of it

Daily car for me, used for business and pleasure. Can't really see the point of a beater car, it's going to depreciate anyway.

Daily drive for the last 13 years is a CRX VTEC.
Daily driver for me - 20 mile round trip to work. Out of the country anywhere from 4 to 7 months of the year, so doesn't rack up the mileage.

Wife has Mazda Xedos V6 (Daily commute - 90 mile round trip), and for 'sensible' stuff.

Had a Celstial Blue CRX VTEC about 10 years ago - fantastic car, though the alarm system was a bitch. Cried when had to sell to get sensible saloon

Weekends for me, and recently only very occasional weekends, been told by my dealer to get out there and put more miles on it!

But the time between drives actually accentutates the ones I do manage to make.

During the week diesel burning comfort shed - Landrover Discovery or GNER 225 driven by someone else :-)
