I think our friendly competition has been won by your McLaren! My Porsche probably has around 2-300 miles more than that number now but I pretty much only use it in the daily races and with the current Gr3 BoP they feel a lot less appealing. I'll probably hit 150k at the same time you get 200!

Honest question here (not just for GMP but any Brit). Y'all use the metric system except for speed? The odometer on your cars is miles and not kilometers? Do you generally use miles over kilometers or is it just with respect to a speed? What about other lengths of measure (inches, yards vs centimeters, meters, etc.)?

What about gas (or petrol as it's called there?) usage? kilometers/liter, miles/liter, miles/gallon?

When in a vehicle distance is in miles and speed in mph. The odometer is in miles.

Measuring most other distances is  generally in centimetres and meters with some exceptions.

Petrol usage is measured in miles per gallon. This makes zero sense because we pay for petrol in a cost per litre and fill up in litres. I couldn't tell you how much a gallon is.

As @watto79 said Britain is a bit weird in that we use a strange mixture of metric and imperial, it does seem like the older people tend to lean more towards imperial though, they'll measure smaller things where you have a choice (rulers/tape measures have both) in inches whilst us Remainers would use centimetres. For things like speed/distance on the road everyone uses miles because that's what is on all the road signs.
 
Just out of curiosity, when you do start racking up the miles, does it have a major impact on the engine and performance? If you were to rebuild the engine, would that effectively count as a brand new engine?

Rebuilding the engine wont restore full HP once you reach a good amount of miles.

My P1 at around 25K miles lost 5HP and rebuilding the engine only gets me back to 981.

Performance wise my P1 is still running the same lap times on 220K miles has it did on 25K miles I use a stock brand new P1 to match lap times.

We basically have a really annoying mix of imperial and metric. All the cars in the UK in modern times show both KPH/MPH but MPH is primary. You can switch it in the settings usually for continental driving and speed limits.

It’s not just automotive where we have this weird mix in that we still look at land sizes as both imperial (acres) and metric (hectares) weirdly all food is done to EU spec so measured in grams or derivatives of grams. But our money is metric 🤷‍♂️
