Despite the reputation of Land Rover they seem to be able to high miles.

Of course they do, they are worth sufficient money that whatever goes wrong on them is invariably fixed.

I think that Volksawagen is probably about £1990 more than it should be. Just had a look at the other Sharans for £2k, they're all nicer, lower miles and similar age, that'll never sell.

Is it perhaps £1,800 for the taxi bits (and possibly, by implication, the right to operate a vehicle) and £200 for the utter shed of a van? Agree that as a means of transportation it's ludicrously overpriced.

Not for sale, but we had a 63 plate MB E220 (registered 30th September '13) in for a service on Monday and it had done 97000 miles! Not bad

Don't Merc BMW Audi all come with a 3 year unlimited miles warranty... He is really going to push that to the limit.


I'd wager when he does sell it on the engine drivetrain will be sweet as a nut too

Good cars those diesel Mercs and they do big mpg with the 7 speeder

Could be. I just realised it's a wheelchair adapted van, that could put the price up.

Another optimistically priced, retired, 300k VW taxi...

What a crock of st.

Not colossal mileage compared to some on here, but 95k on a 2 year old 320i is pretty good going! However no mention of servicing or history and from an interestingly well-known Yorkshire based dealer..

Hmm, is that the infamous Keighley Trade Centre but by a new name? If so I wouldn't want the car if they gave it to me for free.

Looks like it. Certainly the cheapest F30 I've seen but there is a question mark over its history, unusual choice for big mileage.

That car will likely be as legit as a £7 note.

Not a hope in hell would i touch it.

Yes 3 years / unlimited mileage.. Chap has had one warranty claim so far and that was a door handle problem..

Those 'airline pilots' that the driver used to ferry about must have been pretty lazy not to use their own cars to get to/from work

Unloaded when the MB 3 year, unlimited miles warranty expires of course

Looks like a great car, very well looked after, I have looked at a couple of warranty companies and unable to get a quote to cover this one, I'm guessing that would have been a 50 grand car 3 years ago

That looks lovely. I know pictures can be deceiving, but it looks to be in remarkable condition.

Also showing over 38mpg average for last 10k miles, very impressive.

ETA;

It's not the highest mileage in the thread, but it's certainly one of the stranger choices to cover over 200k miles in;
