My mileage is sensible now I've got a normal job, at around 300-400 a week. But thats only the last 18 months. Before that I worked as a touring musician/sound engineer and covered 1500-2500 a week. This was before the Fiats. I covered starship miles in the best/cheapest/most reliable/boring car I've ever owned, E-Reg Cavalier Estate. I've still got it, along with my pair of Marea's. Its got 250,000 on the clock, but has done a few thou' more.(the clock stuck at 22,000 third time for a few months). All I've ever done to it is oil,filters,tyres,exhausts and last year two sills and CO for MOT. It smokes a bit these days and now needs an MOT, so its off the road at the moment.
Oh yeah, and it only ever let me down once. I left it at the girlfriends house, down in Kent, while I went to Germany for two weeks, I came back to find I'd left it unlocked with the hatch half open. The interior light had flattened the battery. Called the AA, felt like a ****.
Its been a great car and I can't bear to scrap it. If anyone wants it..............I'll charge the battery and fill the tank.

My uno turbo is on 236000miles at the moment, running at a bar, still goes like the proverbial sh*t off the shovel

had second new head gasket and new valve guides (the original ones were oval!!) at 215k.
Apart from that everything else on the engine is original, no smoke or water leaks either
