Re: How many miles in the month?
72,782 Micra, 51,256 Leaf at end of April
A whole 15 miles in the Micra......It it worth taxing/insuring/mot-ing it, even though its bargain basement of bargain basement. I've talked myself into it so far as a convenience, and a workhorse, and mobility should me or others need it when maintenance/repairs needed to others in the fleet. Loathe to put petrol in it at current prices.
1,110 in the leaf about the typical monthly mileage, although a few trips to Scotland in May have taken it over the 1,000.
Farthest North in the Month Ballencrief by railway (past Longniddry on the way to Haddington East Lothian)
Farthest East in the Month Cullercoats
Farthest South in the Month Cullercoats
Farthest West in the Month Scots Gap
Cullercoats makes it to mileage of the month Picture of the Month, the nice places to stop off at pics are on the eponymous thread here https://www.frenchcarforum.co.uk/forum/ ... 35#p718535

Re: How many miles in the month?
May yet again, a quiet month for me with:
141 in MX3
863 in Subaru
0 in RX400H
Total 1004
This month I already have impending trips to Leicester and to Peter's in Dorset so likely to be better!!
As for the picture , well it had to be the vintage French car!!

Re: How many miles in the month?
That's more miles than usual. Looking at my Google Map Timeline I seem to have done about 250 of them, plus around fifty walking.

Re: How many miles in the month?
Following on from 15 miles in May, done even less petrol miles in June only 6. Seeing as the tank was virtually empty,
I went to the petrol station and paid £10 to put the contents of this into the tank, just to keep its "around the doors" workhorse activity going. MOT is up this month, may not bother with it and considering SORN.
regards Neil

Re: How many miles in the month?
June saw a few more miles thanks to the trips I made outside normal use:
130 in MX3
1351 in Subaru
0 in RX400H
Total 1481
I had a fair number of pictures to choose from but trying to avoid the usual trains and boats and planes I picked out this 1960's Silvertone 1481 Valve Amplifier!!:

Re: How many miles in the month?
Furthest South in the Month gets the picture credits for June
Maybe a couple of miles South of this would be the actual point on the road between Knitsley and Rowley County Durham, but close enough.
Furthest North Spittal Beach Berwick-Upon-Tweed
Furthest East Cambois (site of British Volt Battery Factory)
Furthest West Bellingham Northumberland

Re: How many miles in the month?
July was a bit down on normal due mainly to keeping myself indoors under the fan during the heatwave!!
19 in MX3
869 in Subaru
0 in RX400H
Giving me a monthly total of 888 got to be a good picture for that!!:
Since today is going to have a bit of a motorcycle theme for me I'll set off with this one:

Re: How many miles in the month?
August has been fairly busy for me with trips to the Isle of Wight and The Nene Valley Railway as well as back and forth to my storage container as the clearout gets underway!
81 in MX3
1365 in Subaru
0 in RX400H
giving me a total of 1446 for the month. So it's back to the good old Canadian Pacific:
