How many miles do you put on your Cobra in a year?
Actual miles. NO bench-racing miles. I, personally, have put a little over 7,000 miles in the year since I have owned the car. It would have been more, but it was in the shop for body and paint (NOT my fault!), partial rewiring, radiator, and head gaskets/header and sidepipe aluminizing. Well under the 12,000 mile limit being considered under SB 708. And you?

9000 in 2 years, If our climate were a little dryer and more predictable, would be an awful lot more.

I only put 13000 on in about three years but don't have the luxury of earlier poster's good weather. It did not see a mile between October 12 and yesterday when I got about 6 miles in. That is unusal as I have always found a window of opportunity every other week or so all winter long in the past. I also lost most of the summer of 2000 with a blown engine. Excuses. Excuses. Excuses.

Only 4000 miles in 2 years. Like Wilf it would be a whole lot more if the weather wasn't so bad over here. Today is a classic example - had the car out of the garage ready to go to a show when the heavens opened. Don't mind driving in the cold but Cobras in the wet are not my idea of fun.

Jamo, I have been grand but missing all my Buds from the West Coast. Looking forward to seeing you at the Fling. Lets drink a few together when you get there. If you are coming in early, let me know. I don't need much of an excuse to sneak away early but YOU would be a GOOD reason.

I'm surprised at how many miles some members are able to log per year. This winter in the ATL area has not been really condusive to open top cars, but I think I've only logged around 450 miles in the last year.
Obviously need to get my butt in that car a little more....
At least I can say that they have been 450 GREAT miles.
