Due to one reason or another i haven't driven the 75 properly in a few months. However relishing the thought that in a few days i will be getting into it to drive 180 miles from my location to the French Pyrenees for a few days. Yes a lot will be highway cruising of which this car eats up in comfort and at the other end a few mountain passes which it also handles sublimely and get the chance to drop it into sport mode.
Its a 20 year old car that am only the second owner of so has been maintained very well but have no qualms about putting the mileage on as it was made to be driven and enjoyed.

Just go for it i say as what's the point of polishing something you don't get to use. Yes it might break down but so can any car including new ones. That's the curse of owning a car but you get in with faith its going to do it's job.

Just my opinion though, Drive and enjoy and don't worry about the mileage.
