Hi all

Anyone with experience buying a high mileage newer car ? I've always bought 2nd hand cars with as few miles on as possible but having a look at some big diesel 5 series and A6 2012-2014 with 100k-150k miles. Most appear to be in great condition, FSH with only minor things on mot history. Anything really to worry about or a pretty safe bet ? A lot of car for the money.

Thanks!

I'd say it's about history and condition.
I'd rather have a regularly serviced, above mileage car than one that's low milage because it's been sat around for ages and been services every other year.

^this.

But, lots of car for the money also cost a lot to run, service and perhaps tax.
