Oh why did you have to go there Panda? I put 40,000km's on my cars since May, and we haven't really gone anywhere! How many hours is that???

I imagine as where we live I am doing around 100km/hour, we don't live in or near a town, that's 400 hours over 120 days, that's an average of 3.3 hours a day, bearing in mind on Sundays we rarely go any where that involves a car. Of course if any of that was doing 50km/hr for the times that I am actually in a town it would be even longer than!

My friends all wonder why I love cars more than any other consumer item, perhaps that is why, I live in my cars.

I'm not sure of the mileage, but it takes us less than 5 minutes to get there. We are very spoiled.
