I do about 5k a year in mine, we went and had my friends M3 MOT'd the other day, and this is no joke what so ever he had done 305 miles between MOT's!! There wasnt a fault with the car all year so wasn't as if it was undriveable!! Unsure why he has the car to be honest!!

I think the least I did was maybe 3000 miles between services and that was because for about eight months, I walked to work!
