Some advice needed please.

hello there,

as you can see i do not post much but i am hoping to purchase a 172 phase 2 at the end of this month. my budget can stretch to almost 4000 but im looking and ive seen some with around 32k on the clock at £3750 or i can go for 49k miles for £3200, just after someone to tell me the benifits and drawbacks really

ive read the buyers guide and obviously cambelt will be an issue on the older cars but apart from that is there anything i will be loosing out on by saving 500 quid?

cheers in advance

I'd buy on mileage & condition, tbh with you no one pays the asking price especially now, so the car for £3750 can probs be had for £3500

thats what im thinking but then the same applies for the higher millage so could prob get that for around the 3100 mark, essentialy what i think i am trying to ask is saving 15k miles worth £400 or not? i think lol
