All the cars im seeing are about 110,000 miles... is that scary high or will it last a good few years? generally, i mean.
I think i'll be going the diesel route... though to be honest, im being vein and i'd have either, whichever has the better interior!  |
Hi Adam,
The diesel is pretty bulletproof if looked after. It has a timing chain which is generally good for 250k before it needs changing. Weakest point is the clutch which can be expensive if it fails. I was lucky and had a warranty that picked up the cost of replacing both master and slave cylinders.
Dave (Stocktake) has extensive knowledge and will see you right.
Good luck with your search and welcome to the club.
