Maximum mileage?

[laura_g]

If you was car hunting what would be the maximum mileage you would get on a car regardless of the manufacturer, i wouldnt get a car past 90k what about you lot?

[bexster82]

100k for me

[Raz]

i wouldnt get a car over 70k on the clock....only ever buy a car higher mileage if i planned to do stuff to it....turn a rusty car into a minter etc...

[b0t13]

80k on french car, 100k on jap

[saxowebby]

first one i didnt care what milage lol, now its about 60k max depending on history etc.

my new car i want, would be about 40k max as i will be keeping it for a few years

[Quick]

All depends on the car!
100k of motorway miles can be better than 30k as a shopping trolley!!!

[mikeyb_lyd]

40k if a long termer, other than that, wouldnt really go about 70k for a petrol

[VTR-Chris-VTR]

Well if i was going out to spend 2-4k on a saxo or a car then i wont it to have low mileage

If i was gonna spend about 1.5k on a car then i wudnt mind so much.......mileage to me sometimes dont matter aslong as its been looked after, in a way it shows its realiable that its still workin strong even if it got 140k on clock

Its getin quite hard to find cars will low mileage now, especially all them new rep mobiles (vectras etc)

cause i mean my car for instance 114k and it runs smooth just like my mk2 VTR, and most of it since ive had it is motorway miles which is alot better just like Quick said

[craigy_87]

dont really care about mileage as long as i know the cars been looked after

My old xsi vts had 155000 on the clock when i sold her.

Del sol had 120000 and the gti has 115000

Would depend on the age of the car first of all, the the manufacturer.... but as a rule I tend to look for cars easily under 80K

Agree with Chris tbh if it's a Jap car, it's going to live longer than you more than likely.

this is kind of freaky as i was just thinking about this as im looking at Focus's, i want a 1.8 Zetec, and a few have pretty high miles on them from 100k to 130k!

but can also b low for a much higher price... but i dont know if it would b ok to get a 100k one as they are much cheaper, and i will only b having it fir a year or so...

Indeed... although most fresh Jap Imports have very low mileage, cause the Japs don't drive anywhere... my 12 year old Jap car had about 48K on it.

You'll probably find that they are ex-company cars and so have been regularly serviced and normally by the main dealer.

[laura_g]

i have noticed that focus's have high mileage on the ones in my price range

[Saxovts22]

80k on french / 100k on german or Jap

[gozzy-vtr]

petrol no more than 85k now way! 100 leave about 20k miles till everythin f***ks up and i do 20k in 18months

[nazz1]

if i was buying a french car, ideally not more than 60-70k

if i was buying a german car, ideally not more than 80-90k

[Tupps]

I'd never have a car over 70k tbh
