I would like to know, who uses their Polo on a daily basis? I use mine only on weekends, during the week I drive a half restored 1979 3-door MKI Golf - not gonna let my baby stand in the wind/rain/hail/hot sun...

Unfortunately I've got to use mine on a daily basis as it's my only car.

I do park it about a km away from where I work and study though. Just to spare my Polo from having to circulate on pavé streets which make its interior plastics rattle like maracas - see the pic below...

Nope - Mine can stay in my garage for a few days at a time. I live close enough to work to walk or cycle in, plus my last car was driven into twice in the car parks at work, and I don't want to risk my baby.

Hence, at ten months old, it's currently somewhere btwn 4000 and 4100 miles (but I have done about 1200 in hire Corsas)...

Basically, I use my car for fun and fun only. It's a complete toy / luxury.

Deek.

I wish I could do that!

All I can manage is to sometimes borrow my mum's Escort for hauling stuff, but that's it.

No rest for my Polo apart from that.

Shame really, but these days it's lucky if it goes anywhere during the week :cry:

I Motorcycle to London and back everyday, and would use the car if i worked locally..
