Cars were meant to be driven.

That being said, since buying my Allante about a year ago, I've only put about 1,000 miles on it. I wouldn't advocate the use of an Allante as a daily driver, but I don't think it should be mothballed up and hidden from sight. When it's a sunny day, I try to take a drive (even if only a few miles) just to keep the fluids circulating.

Most collector car insurance only covers a certain amount of mileage per year. I know J.C. Taylor's limit is 2,500 miles; other collector car insurances are probably comparable.

I suspect those people urging you to keep your car low mileage might be more concerned about its value come resale; a low mileage car will almost always be more valuable than its high mileage counterpart.

With all that said, it is your car, not anyone else's. Drive it as you see fit.
