Don't leave it to chance Dave...engineer it with a pointless (other than to take the photo) journey. The holy grail would be have 789.0 on the trip meter. That would involve resetting the tripometer at 122667 :-D

Post it up on the Picture of the day thread if you manage to photograph your 123456 :-D

Same here. Two trips to shops, one a round trip of about fifteen miles all told, the other two miles. Only go once a fortnight when I have the car, any other times I walk to one of the local - ish shops.

Sorry I'm a bit late with this but with Chelsea v Man U and the snooker final between Ronnie O'Sullivan and John Higgins, I ran out of time yesterday!!

So February's numbers are:

281 in C5
149 in MX3
0 in Airbus 321
0 in RX400h

Total 430

which is not too difficult to find pictures for so I ruled out a Ferrari or a Lexus leaving my choice as:

I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!
