Buying a car - some advice please

[Andehh]

I am in the market for a new car, a Citroen C5 2.2 HDi Exclusive, 1-2 years old with around 15,000 on the clock. I have a budget of £13,000. The last week a few have come & gone but always at the £13,800+ mark and despite furious haggling i cant get it any cheaper then that.


One has come up that has done 30,000 miles and the guy wants £12,000 before i try and knock it down a bit (if I can).


My problem is I dont know whether an extra 15,000 miles is worth the £1000-£1800 ill save. The car has been serviced by a citroen dealer, but it is higher then average miles (rep mobile? motorway?). I have tried autotrader etc but havnt had much much finding a similar example to judge the price and whether its a good deal or whether i should pay more/less.


What do you guys thing? £15,000 extra miles for £1000-£1800 saving?

thanks guys

I'd buy on condition and service history rather than going by mileage.
