for me van i have estimated 30,000 miles but my car does more miles, so therefore have it insured for 56,000 miles but that was the last job as a rep, so will reduce it to about 20,000 for this year. Between them both if i do about 50,000 miles that should be good, and remember that is only about 1000 a week. (I drive to france a bit in the car and it is only 2300 miles return so that is not that far!)

which parts of the country do you visit ?

I've had my current Mk5 for over 2 1\2 years and have only just clocked up 14000 miles. With previous vans I have been known to do 3000 miles in a week.
