Do you use your ZS to commute?

I just got moved posts at work and now instead of a quick 10 min drive to work have got just under a 40 mile round trip to work each day.

To make it worse i do 7 days in a row so gonna be alot more mileage going onto the car.

Only good thing is i love driving it and looking at it so i will get to be in it more

Good reason to drive more.....

I drive mine to work in London every day.

Only about 35 miles there and back.

I use her to commute to the local train station where she hangs out with other cars, what she gets upto is unknown to me......., although what ever she decided to do on Friday she had a fight with a VW Golf, and had a battle scar on the drivers door , bl00dy Germans!!!, a bit of scratch X and she's fine.......

Anyway my journey is about 8-10 miles per day, I really should by a wee runabout to do this, but she'd only get jealous....

Ever since I changed jobs I decided to buy a cheap shed for the commute. Purely for fuel reasons and mileage, couldn't justify £10 a day and +70 miles a day. But have used it occasionally and sometimes a Friday treat I enjoy it more at weekends now, it's also just gone through the 48k mark.

At the moment commute is 24mile round trip to LHR. Shared between ZS, SJ & Carrera (x-power push bike).

Moving to E Sussex soon, so dont fancy putting 140miles per day on ZS (although only work 12 days per month on 12hour shifts), plus overtime.

Like Stamford (Ambassador to UN) I will when moved actively look for a commute car, probably diesel type.

I use my zs everyday as I only drive 6 miles to work, no harm in that.
