I'm looking at buying a 2006 ex academy racer, thats been tracked and raced for a few years since finishing the academy.

Would I be walking into a world of problems buying a pretty heavily raced car for mostly road and track day use?

It's still got its MSA seal but its had forged pistons, but other than that its pretty standard.

It has nearly 10,000 miles on it, is this high for a Caterham?

Anything in particular I should be looking at in addition to normal stuff? Or am I best off spending a bit more and getting something that hasn't been raced?
