Type R's, whats's your mileage?
 
My Type R is a 2nd (or even 3rd) car so it doesn't get used a great deal. The mileage is is now around 42,000. It was on 26k when I bought it 7 years ago. I guess it's quite low for a 13 year old car.

Maybe lol

The reason I was asking is that as 2 door cars commanded a higher value (I paid over £14k for mine) than the comparable 4 door car, I wondered how many are 2nd cars/cherished cars etc. and with that if they will be low mileage and maintain a premium.

Or they cost more (in the long run) to replace bits who need using to keep then good.

74k miles on a v4 sti type r but would some of that be in km or does the mph conversion convert the kms into miles? I bought the car in march 2005 with 54k on the clock.

Mines got 65k miles, had a full engine rebuild at api about 18 months ago, its only used as a summer, dry weather car, it gives me something to look forward to after driving a nasty van all week.
