Had my own car MOT'ed over the weekend. It passed of course  :)
Mileage now 21196, that's 1169 miles from last years actual reading of 20027  ;)

As for the 'high mileage' Peugeot taxi I drive for work, tomorrow it will tick over the 900000 miles mark.
That's 38000 miles since I took that picture last year  :o

I know it's an old thread, but all that info is on page 1 of it. We still have the same 06 plate car.
Yours had done 125 thou last year. (From my memory of reading all this thread earlier tonight).

No, that wasn't me mate. Spotted you in a couple other places and waved, but you were concentrating so hard on driving properly, you didn't see me in my 40 foot tube ;)

I don't get much bother with bus drivers tbh, they do seem to have a vendetta against Our_Lass though, she's had some right run ins with some of the male drivers. Some Stagecoach, but mainly TM Travel.

TM Travel - most of them are ex stagecoach drivers anyway. However they don't have Greenroad.com type gizmos on board monitoring your every movement.
Could be worse.........
