How far do you drive to work (in Scooby)
Possible round trip for a new job of 100 miles a day, was looking at maybe buying a diesel and making the Scooby my weekend car, just interest in how far you lot travel and how much you spend on fuel to do it ?

7 miles a day (should use a pushbike as I'd get there quicker, I work 1/4 mile from J30 M25, and when the bridge is stuffed, it can take 3/4 hour to travel the 3 1/2 miles to work 
)

68 round trip daily, spend probably about 80 quid a week on fuel. (this includes a 20 mile round trip to my dads once or twice a week as well as general tootling around)

Followed a nice blue wagon this morning all stickered up.
Yesterday morning had a silver saxo screeming its nads of trying to race.
Q. why do they bother trying?

Mine would be 98 miles round trip. So bought a vRS diesel. Still keep a bit of poke, average around 50mpg and the money saved on the optimax pays for the loan.
