ahhhhhhh I feel happy about my latest steed to the pack then !
Bought a one owner-ed Merc Estate C270 cdi yr 2002 which is immaculate in every way full Merc service history for absolutely everything including new tyres in Jan at £500 !…still not told you the mileage yet or price…the guy I bought it from only used it for motorway driving his other cars where an Aston Martin and another Merc…I have the original bill of £36000 !
Anyway back to the mileage 206000 and I paid £1900 I have never bought a car with over 50000 miles before so I took a gamble…he only sold it as he got another brand new one ! (a treat to himself so he told me )
I now feel better that some of you guys are/have run cars well over 200000 miles even if the car I have just bought lasts out another year or two then its the depreciation I would have taken on any car at £4000…and who’s to say a £4000 car is any more reliable…If Id spent £4000 on a the same car it would have had 150000 miles on it…
Insurance was the same price as our old VW Touran 1.6 Fsi and service parts are the same cost…
BANGERNOMICS !
