    Is 75k too much?

    I've found a cracking car with 1 prev owner, fsh, 12 months mot ect for a good price. It's a 1.9 turbo-diesel. It was registered in 2003, only problem is it has done just over 75,000 miles. Do you think this is too much and what are your experiences of buying high-milege cars?

    Cheers

    What car is it?

    I wouldn't class 75k as high mileage for a diesel...

    75k is nothing...Our works van (VW) is currently on 200K with the original engine..And that thing gets treated like S**T..My GT is on 105K and still (just) going,,
