I have had mine since shortly before I joined the forum in Oct '06 and put a grand total on 5,000 miles on it. It has been under construction 3,000 before and 2,000 after the rebuild. Maybe then I can totally enjoy it for another 200,000+ ALL while it is complete.

I've put 70k on my car since I was started driving (4 years ago, when I was 16).
I realized the other day I've got 20k on the B6 I rebuilt and put in a year and a half ago. I keep thinking I just slapped that engine in, it should be like new! but really for an engine that was already beat I'm glad its still going.~Nate

I bought mine in November of last year and have put 4500 miles on it already. It's over 200,000 and running like a little red sewing machine. I grin every time I drive it.

I can't remember exactly when I bought my Festiva, but it was at least 6 months ago, (whenever I joined FF.com) and It has only been driven a maximum of 6 miles: To my grandparents house once and back.

I bought my white 93 GL sport about 4-5 months ago and I've put less than a mile on it
Mind you.. it's on the other end of the country... but still!Comment

It hasn't been driven because I have a new car and a motorcycle to get me around while I:Originally posted by Pu241 View Post
1. Save money for the Festiva
2. Spend that money on the Festiva
3. and Work on restoring the Festiva
But it looks like my tax return will get it back on the road a lot sooner.
