I've gone as far as buying a dog of a van for the 18 mile round trip to work, rather than "kill" my S8 with the short trips. I put twenty quid of tractor fuel in and that does me for the week, a justifiable business decision in my book
Another reason is another usual one when owning a D3, car park spaces. They've just built a new car park, with underground heating no less, and the spaces are barely enough for a standard saloon car so there's no way I'm putting it at daily risk of dings and scratches. Once the weather improves the van will go the journey and the bike will take over commuting duties
