What mileage is OK for a used car
In general, I would not recommend purchasing a
car with a very high mileage, for example, 250,000 km (155,000
miles) and higher would be considered very high. However, "low
mileage" does not necessarily mean it's going to be a "good
car". Be aware of cars that may have undergone restoration after
a serious accident or cars that haven't been property
maintained, or cars that may have had their odometer rolled back
- nowadays they can easily 'fix' even electronic odometers.
Again, checking a car history records will certainly help to
avoid those lemons with "fixed" odometer.
When considering the 'mileage' count, it simply means that when
choosing a car whether it has 60,000 or 80,000, it is not as
important as the fact that it was well maintained and
accident-free.
