Should I Or Should'nt I

Lookin at trading my T3 avensis for a Spirit, this is the best one I have found but find the milage extrodanary high...about 74K on clock it a D4D 2003 reg at a smigin under 9k....I am tempted but the milage does make me a bit squeemish.....

any advice???

The mileage isn't a huge problem, but the value ratio isn't as good. To me £9k seems a bit steep considering that you can buy a Camry of similar age with less mileage for the same price which is just as high-spec but IMO is better quality, larger and more comfortable, in terms of depreciation at 9k it's just under half it's new price, I think you should be looking at £7500 for something like that.

I got the same car excep for £7300. With 72000 milage. I guess I was lucky :D.

Wonder what a car supermarket would charge for a car like that? less than £9k anyway.

Get some comparisons together then go to the seller and see if they will budge down a bit. Worth considering any other benefits you may get-if its a dealer do you get better warranty, full tank of fuel, tax etc
