Is 60k really high miles?

[ChrisR]

Yeah the engine is running great, but i've had to change a few parts in the last year.

Two new driveshafts
Brake pads and discs
Cambelt
And just had the 72K service.

I'm happy with it though, except for the creaky drivers seat :dapprove:

But seeing as all but the driveshafts are consumables/servicing then that's not terrible

60k is nothing wouldn' ver worry me.

You can get worn springs dampers etc it all depends Mine were worn at a level I wasn't happy with at 50k but then gain I've driven Clios with over 100k on stock dampers and there fine for my standards.

IMo so long as he pice is rihgt I'd have no hesitation buying one.

 

[dRUM]

For a French car yes

Rubbish! The engine is good for at least 100k, especially serviced reguarly and the belts done

 

[Hazza]

mine is a 1.2 2001 and has done 83,000. its fine.

83,000 miles?? where the hell do u go? Around the world??... lol

 

[AhmedRSi]

Tis a trooper.

 

[MarkCup]

Mine's a 53 plate (Nov 2003) and it's done 87k since new.

It's the fastest car in the world now.

 

[Day]

I'd agree with that.

Mines never felt so good and I've hit 65k this week.

 

[deadonkey]

Thats nothing.
Ive got a 1.2 16v 2002 with 101k on it. fair enough its using a bit of oil bit its reliable enough.

 

[Greeny.]

Mines on 63k and seems fine engine wise, cambelt etc just been done.
