86k ent bad

my old 106gti (same car basically) had 153021 on it when i finished with it
and at like 151k on rollers made 137 hp with breathing mods
it never missed a beat
and pulled like a trooper

high milage doesnt mean that its a bad car ,u could get a vtr/vts with 30k on but if it has been owned by a tool that has never changed the oil ,plugs gearbox oil ect and hammered it around mcyd,s car park every night then it may look nice and shiny with low miles but mechanicaly be fooked

my car has done 98k and runs like a dream. i did replace the engine for a 58k engine 5months ago. my car has never had a driveshaft/ wheel bearing replaced etc and still handles really tight

edit: basically mileage isnt an issue as long as the car has been looked after properly

Its either a VTS with VTR wheels or a dodgy dealer advertising as a VTS.

Lots of them do that, when you turn up they act dump and try convince you that whatever they have is the best thing out there.

The Furio on there is a nice bargain for someone. VTR alloys, 33,000 miles. £1295.

I've seen them reaching closer to £3000 for a mileage like that where I live.
