    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    My car 02 megane 51k miles.

    00 Toyota Avensis - 294 000 miles
    Bought it for €500 couple of years ago and for the first time had to spend money on it today with a new steering rack, great aul car though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,226 ✭✭✭angelfire9


    04 Fiesta my car 59500 miles
    04 Focus his car 80000 miles but to be fair he only got it in the last few days 'twas my mothers "nip to the shop and mass" car for 2 years and my sister in law's before that


  • Registered Users Posts: 170 ✭✭db330


    295,000 Km's on an 05 Pajero


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,003 ✭✭✭bijapos


    03 Hiace 177,000 miles
    01 Hiace 128,000 miles
    04 Hiace 392,000 miles :pac:
    05 Renault Modus 104,000 miles

    04 Hiace will be retired at the end of the month, parked up and used for parts, DOE is too expensive, most of that mileage is Dublin-London and Dublin-Germany, engine uses only 0.5l of oil per 10,000 miles!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,973 ✭✭✭Chris_Heilong


    135,000 km, on a 01 Honda civic 1.5l(JDM) dont know how many of those km were driven in Japan but the car was imported in 2008 and I have had it a year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,451 ✭✭✭CharlieCroker


    168,000km on a 09 Mondeo diesel
    84,000 miles on a 01 astra.

    Main Car '98 V70 T5 220,000 miles
    Second car '99 S80 T6 200,500miles
    Other car '00 Beetle 1.8T 106,000 miles

    V70 was the cheapest car we've ever bought, with the most miles (182,000 when we bought it). To date has been the cheapest to run in terms of repairs and most reliable. So far all thats failed on it during our ownership has been a MAF sensor.
    Beetle has been a feckin' time and moneypit bought that at 85,000 I think.

    Previous owner had it sitting up for quite a while.

    Had quite a few issues that needed to be sorted when I got it most caused by the amount of time it was laying idle.

    I've pretty much sorted all of them now so happy out:D
