Why drive a boring car at work when i can have a grin on my face all the time not just at weekends.
Fair enough, if the company pays then you have nothing to worry about, do you? Or do you? As the economy struggles I would be less than thrilled with an employee who abuses his privelages. Your company might be cool about this sort of stuff, but if it was me I'd be giving some thought to not taking the p1ss. Just a different point of view for you.

7k a year averaged over he 5 years I've had the sti. Less than that average over the last 2 years, car sharing for work is a real money saver!

About 3K a year - when the sun is out.

Looks like it may be 30 miles this year.

6500 quality miles a year !

Cycle to work to keep fit when the weather permits.

Monday run to York 75 miles = £18. Only 4 miles to work, so hate to only chug there and back.

NO WAY I'd do high mileage in a Scoob. I seriously resent giving the feckless government any more of my wages in tax.

I hope you enjoy driving Miss Daisy!!!

55Mpg that equates to roughly ... so mid/low power diesel it is then I'm guessing??? As I said I enjoy all of my miles !
