5,000 miles  I think I did about 1500 in half a year or so but I had a new rev counter put in as mine was broke so the mileage got reset
i have done 9000 miles in 14 months on mine. i did a 100 mile round trip the other day. at 50 mph it took for ever

I blasted straight down to school because I had a test .. then after that justkind of drove round aimlessly.
... first thing I did when I got the corsa was drive up to Glasgow for a job. Had it 11 months now and have done 24,000 miles

Went for a 15 mile drive by myself. Was kind of wierd to not have anyone sat beside me at first. Then went to my mate's house and asked him who's car was outside because I hadn't told anyone about the test. Then we went to Mc Donalds! Twice

can't really remember what I did, remember being really pleased when the instructor told me i'd passed 
Oh ran someone over on a zebra crossing but that wasn't anything major....
Couple of months later had a stressful day at work and backed my old man's Primera into a concrete bollard 
Was gutted
