How many miles did you drive your ZHP / BMW / MINI in 2017 ?

[fredo]

Let's write down our initial mileage in 2017. Let's make a guess how many miles you will drive this year and compare with the real number when 2017 is over.

2005 ZHP : 142,460. Guess 2,500 miles
2005 Mini : 146,415. Guess 5,000 miles
2011 X3 : 65,615. Guess 24,000 miles (wife's car, her guess)
2008 Saab : 88,574. Guess 5,000 miles.

I'm also guessing one of the above vehicles will be sold in 2017.

Edit: info added on 04-Feb-2017.

[Johnmadd]

I started 2017 at 189804 miles. I predict 15,000 this year, maybe 20,000.

[ELCID86]

Starting off with 203,593.

Starting Mileages and Hours!

2003 ZHP, 149,624
2103 Tacoma TRD, 55920
2016 428I, 5,290
2008 SeaRay 185 Sport, 156.3 Hours

[Vas]

2004 ZHP:
Year start: 144,079

2005 ZHP:
Year Start: 153,090

[holyc0w]

Starting mileage is 109904

[jwalther]

88246 to start. I was just short of 6k last year in a light driving year. I'll predict 7k for a total of 95246.

[BimmerDude]

Starting the Year off with 211,175 im prediciting 16-18k this year

1999 M3 - 144k and holding
2006 x5 - 107,111

[wstr75]

Starting 2017 with 115,198. Sometimes I have the urge for a used 2 Series vert, but I usually lie down and the urge goes away (a paraphrasing of Satchel Page's famous quote). Assuming the urge is not consummated, am projecting 2017 EOY mileage at 120,500.

[johnrando]

Starting at 86,435. Guess an additional 7500.

[Prestovie]

Starting 2017 off with 103,781
I don't see myself doing anymore than 10k if that

[san]

Don't remember exactly when I started by it is approx - 136,6xx

My guess is I will drive 20,000 miles

Jeez, go big or go home I guess haha :biggrin

[az3579]

Starting at just over 260k... I've reduced quite a lot in 2016, so I'm guessing 20-25k.

[san]

Jeez, go big or go home I guess haha :biggrin

LOL I did put on about 22k miles in 2016, so I am just going by what I did in 2016...

Added initial 2017 miles to post #1, posting here for your convenience:

2005 ZHP : 142,460. Guess 2,500 miles
2005 Mini : 146,415. Guess 5,000 miles
2011 X3 : 65,615. Guess 24,000 miles (wife's car, her guess)
2008 Saab : 88,574. Guess 5,000 miles.

I'm also guessing one of the above vehicles will be sold in 2017.

[ELCID86]

Wow, the wife must put some real time behind the wheel Fred.

And I hope you can slim down the stable. We were at 5 vehicles last year and I'm down to two! So much easier to keep up with maintenance. Not to mention the money I don't have to shell out to USAA!

[NYRhockey]

2004 ZHP (my baby): 52,054 at time of purchase, 52,720 as we speak after the trip home from NC. Will probably end the year between 56-57K.
2007 Sky RL (my commuter car): Ended 2016 at 106,800, guessing it will end between 114-115K
2012 Grand Cherokee (family car): Ended 2016 at 79,400, expecting to end between 95-96K. This car gets driven a lot considering the wife works from home.

[dpark]

Started at 120,352 miles. Annual mileage is pretty consistent at right around 10k miles. Don't see anything that will change that.

The numbers are final for 2 out of the 3:

2004 ZHP: 55,649 as i pulled into the garage this morning. Done for the year with about 3,600 miles in 2017.
2007 Sky RL: 116,249 as it sits on the driveway. Done for the year with about 9,500 miles in 2017
2012 Grand Cherokee: Approximately 97,300 as of today with a couple more days to go. Probably end in the 97,500-600 range and roughly 18,000 miles this year. Holy crap.

In mid-Jan i'll be getting a 4th car (2003 Pathfinder) so the other 3 cars will get fewer miles in 2018 than this year, particularly the ZHP.

2103 Tacoma TRD, 55920
2016 428I, 5,290
2008 SeaRay 185 Sport, 156.3 Hours

I never predicted what the mileage would end up as. That probably a good thing because, I never expected to be commuting 150 miles a day and relocating when this was posted.

2003 ZHP, end 156,520 = 6,896
2013 Tacoma traded @ 75,535 = 19,615
2016 528CIc end 16,506
= 11,216
2008 Searay only out 5 or 6 Times

2018 4Runner will start the year at 4,300 +
2000 Yamaha back running starts at 45,192 with an unknown future

"ZHP is a garbage option anyway- just some cosmetic upgrades with a different cam and diff to claw back some of the performance lost fitting those hideous and heavy wheels. Any 330 with a 3.46 diff will smoke a ZHP every time. The whole Mafia thing reeks of childish behavior." - anonymous E46 fanatic

[BADCLOWN]

Ended with a few hundred over 103k, probably did close to 3,500-3,700 total for the year

The thoughts have skimmed the surface of my brain about selling the car.........ever since I drove a new TRD Pro 4runner I’ve wanted to upgrade my current truck situation.

I happened to record my mileage Jan 2 2017.
12,834 mi. give or take, which is a lot for me. Enthusiasm.

The thoughts have skimmed the surface of my brain about selling the car.........ever since I drove a new TRD Pro 4runner I’ve wanted to upgrade my current truck situation.

I just got a 2018 4Runner Off-Road Premium last month. Looking at the Pro, all I see as performance upgrades are the shocks & Tires + a slight lift. Everything else is cosmetic and I’m not running miles of desert at high speeds and that’s the reason for the shock. As for the tires; I had the OEMs swapped for BFG A/T KO2s, before I drove off the lot.

Save some money and get the Off-Road. I did get major money for my 13 Tacoma and had no intention of upgrading. Be careful if you test drive one. You may land up tacking one home like I did.

Good luck!

I already test drove a pro and it ruined my soul lol. As much as I know it’s cosmetic, I love the cosmetics. I ultimately want to find a CPO cement gray one. I think I could sell my 2001 sport with all the ish done to it (the list of new parts and maintenance in the last year is insane, it needs nothing for a long while) for 10k. I think if I removed the BMWP intake/strut bar/CF rear diffuser/BBS CHs I could get 10k for that car as well. Problem is those are the only two cars we have now and we need to have two vehicles.

I fully understand! I’ve had more tricks than cars over the years and never had to many creature comforts till this one. Haven’t been in a SUV for more than 15 years now and this one is working out good so far. Just finished a couple thousand mile road trip from Huntsville AL to the Lake Erie shots over the holiday without an issue. Except 18 MPG.

awesome. cars are meant to be driven! i always seem to rack up a lot of miles.... living out in the sticks will do that, too. we've put almost 8K miles on the X3 since we got it 3 months ago.... and we've got two vehicles!
