I've put 9000 miles on my C240 since I got it in May of this year. Extrapolate that out and I come up with 18,000 miles per year.

Daily commuter, 34mi round trip to work 5 days a week. In TX, where everything is a car ride away. 170 mi/wk X 50 wks = 8,500 miles, plus recreational use. Maybe 10,000, tops.

Unless you're a saleman, most mileage comes from recreational use (above and beyond commuter use) Mine doesn't see much evening use (I have other vehicles for that, when needed).

Since you asked the original question, what's your estimated miles per year, Oggle?

C250 Coupe 2012
7000, on the Coupe, weekend fun. I drive a commuter van (riders pay the bill) 185 miles per day round trip. Sure glad I do not have to use the Coupe. Get new van every 100,000 and that a little over two years. It sure feels good to get in the coupe on the weekends.

Actually...mine was purchased April 14th.....but due to a salesmokey screw up and some mad cows...the car wasn't produced until 8/19. After that, it was waiting in port for some seatbelt modification...so delivery was delayed until Halloween.

For those too new to remember, I gave the salesmokey a banana for breakfast that morning. The receptionists were in costume too.

I got my car in March and ive put over 18,000 miles on it so far. So in a year it'll be somewhere between 25,000-30,000

I have a 40 mile round trip commute, but the main thing is my girlfriend goes to college 100 miles away and I make the trip out there usually once a week .
