		Im doing around 500 miles a week that works out around 26k a year lol be careful with the insurance thing tho they could check up on you and make your insurance void.... just a heads up plenty of people do it and get away with it tho

		Average about 350 miles a week, been more than that lately though...    
But its ok, I hibernate for 6 months so won't go over my yearly insurance allowance.

		My insurance is down as 5k a year and that should be about spot on tbh. If I drive to work every day for a month I'd do 40 miles, and then add on an average of 350 miles of social driving every month.

		When my engine went in last year, my car was on 151k, it's now on 173k... 
 I've already done 7k in the GTi6 in the 3 months I've been driving it :/

		80,000miles per year normally 1-2k per week. Never under 1k per week. Done 20k in my combo in 2 months. 
 Edit - Combo died this morning only had 90k on bottom end was knocking and smoke everywhere.
 
 2 of our berlingos went back back last week both 10plates had the 2 year. 1 had 167k on the other 159k.

		Between 12,000 and 15,000 I should think. Recently had to upgrade my policy to say I did work mileage too, cost me another £65!

		I've done almost 6k since I bought the 6 in March. My Insurance is 10K. Ooops
 My round-trip to work each day is around 16 miles, 2 miles between mine and Scott's a few nights each week, then random trips to Niall & Grant, Bicester, Reading, my Grandparents in Chichester....

		7k last year, hopefully around the same this year. Was like 15k the year before though due to my absurd 50-miles-each-way commute.

 I was working in cheltenham, 53 miles each way/106 mile a day, 6 days a week. And driving around to Hereford etc most nights with mates, I usually do 100 miles social driving a day...
