I drive my clubbie daily to and from work, would probbably drive it more but the lure of a soft-top 4wd on sunny days over-powers that. Maybe i need to sell my sierra and chop my mini .

yep......Ribena is my daily driver, unless the 4wd is in the driveway when I go to work. But Ribena takes me 3 or 4 days a week.

Cheers

The Deluxe will be a daily driver.
Who'd drive anything else but a mini every day?
Theyre just too much fun...

Mine has always been a daily driver...bloody reliable too..but you keep throwing $$$ at the damn thing to keep it that way

Still I love it to bits

I've semi retired it now that I got the bike

I wish a mini was my daily drive..

Only a few dramers but I think we have fixed those

Not my house. My driveway is almost directly opposite where that mini was parked.



We are a 1 car plus the mini family. Works fine now but after the move up north we will need 2 cars.

You gotta love a mini.

I 've had three minis in the last 4 years all have been daily drivers.
Why would you want to drive anything else they're so much fun!!!!

My Clubbie (TAZ) is my daily drive
best thing on the way to work is the 4 roundabouts
where everyone else backs off
i just go right through on the limit
speed limit that is

Yeh misty is my daily drive - havent had any probs really, rad cooked once, and the other day a lead popped outta the dizzy cap over a speed hump and i was chugging along on 3 for a while.. But otherwise she's rock solid.

And its always nice to jump in and actually ENJOY driving pretty much everytime you go somewhere. You dont need great roads just a roundabout or two and u get the grin.

A lot of people think im crazy - slow heater(bloody hot when it gets there!!), no aircon, 1 speed wipers, no demisting and NO radio/ICE... but hey, im a glutton for punishment :D

interesting replies so far!

Here is a twist on the original question...

How far do you drive in your Mini, if it's a daily hack?

My trip to work is 1 hour!

I use my gold 1275 LS everyday on my 70 km round trip to work,its more fun than a Corolla that my workmates suggested I should get, Tony

I used to use my mini as a daily work car, till it failed a brake test (handbrake) that and the oil leaks realy led me to start the GTi. that probably is the only reason that I want a gti is so that I can run it to work again.
I drove 75kms a trip.... 4 days a week. I had to leave 10 mins earlier then I do now to allow for the speed.. 100k/hr.
I hate getting overtaken by trucks too. especially in the wet, with my single speed wipers.

yeah have to drive an hour to and back, and minis are fantastic when they dont have any problems.

i always seem to have problems however,
and i don't have any money to fix them.

i'd probably swap my minis for a starlet glanza, swift gti or ae86
