I'm just about to take the plunge and put an offer on a T350C but my one concern is the effect of milage on residuals. It will be my only car and will get about 10-12000 miles a year on it. What mileage do other owners put on their cars?

Cheers
Andy

The car has done 6000 in a year, but by the time I sell it at 3 years it will have around 28000

Personally i'd rather buy a secondhand speed 6 engine that has been well used,28000 miles after 3 years is not excessive.
When do you get the T350,what colour,you'll love it,congratulations
