No I haven't got one but I was just wondering wether buying a new bike has improved your riding or just made you ride more.

Having spent a fair whack of cash this summer on a few new bikes has made me ride more yes. My riding style has improved and now have miles more confidence gunning downhill and also over jumps. However, all the riding I have done has not been classed as "quality riding" and has actually made me slower on climbs and more suseptable to getting annoying injuries as I don't rest enough. But can now ride for 5 hours no problem.

That depends if the new bike is better but I guess having a new bike makes you itch to get out and ride any way. Sometimes buying a new bike refreshes your faith in the hobby too.
