I use to ise my 2wd Saph daily but since I got it back on the road in Sept after nine months rebuilding the whole car it gets used a couple of times a week now (if Im luck and its not broken) due to having spent so much money on it I've got to use a more economical car for every day use

Used to use mine most dry weekends, but never when wet. So it barely moved for 5 months over winter. About 2k mls per year (sold car earlier this year with 31k mls on clock).
It all depends on the condition and value of what you buy, as it can dictate the conditions that you are prepared to use it in.

Used to use it every day, but when it comes back out it will be a toy only as i think it will cost too much to run all the time

i use my 3 dr cos every day , had it 2 months and done 2,000 miles already . im a strong believer of buying a car to use not turn it into a garage ornimant . thats just me though .

I use my 3 door whenever I want because I can LOL
Not trying to be snotty, just like the car so want to drive it whenever I can, beacause its a Cosworth
My Sapphire on the other hand only comes out in the dry sunny weather, thus why I bought another
If only I could use one every day

Have driven around 2000 miles this year, incl. picking up the car in Austria. I guess I've been driving the car less than 20 days total. But that still makes it that much lovely to drive when I finaly do it
well mine was a daily driver. insure a 3dr on classic insurance through equity. all mods declared (350bhp) wheels etc
3000 miles a year declared but was doing 8000 easy. 350 quid fully comp 300 excess COVERED FOR RSOWNERS CLUB TRACK DAYS but the excess raised to 1000 for these events.
