Today marks the 3 year anniversary of my refresh. In the first 2 years, I rode exactly 10,000, or ~5k per year. This past year I did 2,934. No major trips for me. I hope to put more miles on again soon. Total milage 212,934.

How many miles do you put on your e9 annually
- Thread starter scottevest
- Start date
Did about 15.000 km (about 10.000 miles) in just over 3 years before ' touching up that little rustspot" started in 2013. Now it back on 4 wheels again since the last week.
I ran with a very poor fuel consumption; about half of what it should do, so engine & carbs need rebuild as well....

Bought my car with 38k in 2010, now at 88k so ~4.5k per year.
If we had one car , average mileage 6/7k per year ie April till Oct ..1k miles per month
I averaged 10k for 31 years but it was my daily driver. I was down to about 3k a year after I started leasing 4 series coupes to take over the daily driving duties but with Corvid and working mostly from home probably only about 1k last year.
From November 2011- August 2021 ~140,000KM or 87,000 miles. Some years Have driven 16K miles, lately it's been 2000 miles or less.
Like DWMBMW, - used to daily drive MyVerona for years, so maybe 8 to 10k per year.
FrauBlueCar is more of a homebody, so lots less mileage.
Scott, - your car is looking great and deserves to get out as much as it does.

I wish I knew. After reassembly the odo was found to be inop. It is on the to do list after The Vintage.
thanks. 8-10k is a lot. I don't think I drive that much with all 3 of my cars together. I work from home so don't get out much

With 61,000 miles+ I drive about 1000 per year. Since my odometer went intermittent last year, I can only guess.

I bought it when it was about 10 years old, and it had about 87,000 miles on it at the time.

In 20 years of ownership, I've added 46K miles. Stranded only once, last year, when the fuel pump suddenly failed but fortunately, only 200 yards from the house.
My Korman engine had 3700 miles on it in 13 years from the PO driving around on Maui. I now have 7800 miles driving around early on weekends in 2 years.
This 1970 2800 saw 165,000+ miles of use in 9 years, it was a daily. Weekend trackrat, too. Probably the most of any CS we owned and also the most dependable.
When it was parted out due to terminal rust, it had logged over 280,000 trouble free miles. Engine went into another car, as did the interior.

Simple answer from me, not enough. No long trips, Goodwood, Gaydon, Norfolk etc in the last two years, so got some catching up to do.

7K miles in four years, but next to none since Covid hit, so it's probably close to 3K a year. Two trips to South Carolina yet this year, so the average should come up.
