How many miles per month and W211 your daily driver?

How many miles / km do you put on your W211 a month and is this your daily driver car?

I put about 1200km a month and it is mostly my weekend car.. (That is why I don't post in here on the weekend, I am driving it.. hehe).

Interesting question.. I'm very curious to see the results.

Primary car.
2200 miles per month (I've only had it for 32 days -- I love driving this car!)

I've had mine for about 28 days, and have put aout 1250 miles in. But that includes a trip to DC and 2 to NYC. My average month will be closer to 1000 miles.

This is my daily driver [only 1.3 mi trip to train station].

About 800 miles/month, and it's my wife's daily driver (to and from work). She's worth it. My daily driver has 26" wire wheels; I need the exercise.

Semi-daily auto. Had the car about 2 months and have around 1400 miles so far, but that included a 400 mile trip to Tahoe. Thus, I put about 500 miles/month.

Ready for this??? I put 3,000 - 4,000 miles on it a month. This is my work car and I cover my territory in it (Sales). I figure that if I am spending that much time in the car I might as well be comfortable and the active ventillated, massaging, dynamic seats see to that...

So far tracking about 1,600 miles a month. I have company car so this is not my daily driver. Company car is Ford Taurus, so you can see it's not to difficult to drive the benz at every opportunity!

Daily driver. Of course, here in NYC, daily driver really means every other weekend.

6000 miles on my 2-month old W211, but that includes a 1-month tour of the East Coast--NYC to ATL to MIA and all points in between.

It will be our daily driver. Current daily driver is about 1700-2000 miles/month. Other cars total about an additional 1000-1200 miles/month (Yukon XL, Honda S2000, Supra TT)

Only ride...slightly over 5000 miles. Took delivery in Sep '03. A long cross country trip could change the present average of about 450 miles a month.
