40k on a 03 plate as really high, my girl travels 20 miles to and from work everyday and is racking up the milage, everything else on the car is perfect but im worried that when we come to sell it that the milage is going to really drag down the price of it!!!!

 

[quickshift]

no dont be silly my 182 has 33 and is a 54

 

[lusty v-tec]

Thats about average mate, so dont worry about it.
The mileage wont drag the value down much doing 13k a year, which is what i think yours averages at if ive calculated it right. Its at 40,000 now, which is a low number of miles in itself

 

[KM CLIO]

thats ok then, it just got me thinking because ive seen lots of people on here with the same year or older, but with only like 25k on the clock!!!!

cheers folks!!!!

 

[Chris1.4RT]

40 miles a day? 200 miles a week? Pah!

That's average like others say.

My 53 plate 172 has 37k miles.

 

[Dan Page]

MY 182 is on 33k now and its the last of 04 reg's....

 

[edde]

40k is nothing my cars on 78k or so on a 52 plate.

20 miles a day isn't to bad depends what traffic/road are like I do about 25 miles each way.

 

[HBB]

I do 25K min a year (not a travelling salesman tho)! Answer is to buy low for year milage cars and sell when around average. Average is about 12K a yr now I think.

 

[jiminy]

dont worry about it, i bought my 53 plate with 17k on the clocks, it seems to have depriciated by a grand in the last 3 months,
s**t happens, especially with french cars

just noticed its a sensible car, it shouldnt be a problem

 

[Paul J]

mines over 40k and an 05 plate lol

 

[Neil G]

Like Jiminy says...these cars depreciate a lot anyway so I wouldn't worry about the mileage too much.

 

[KM CLIO]

cheers folks, the 40k on a 05 plate has cheered me up, lol

 

[quickshift]

yea but see what else he has a gsx-r now f**k the clio and just drive that all year round so much fun
when i was 17 my dad said i couldnt do my bike test , biggest regret in my life

 

[tommyboy]

More miles means it's a good working car which is good for a Reno

 

[Fred@BTM]

i do minimum of 500miles per week sometime upto 1000

 

[DamoWales]

63k on a 53!

 

[DebV6]

It sounds quite average to me.

 

[stu]

my L reg has just got past 78k but iv only had it since september nd was on 75k lol

 

[JACKO CUP 172!]

my 03 cup is on 41k..

 

[Sir_Dave]

My late '53 is on 83k :rasp: its a 206 hdi though, racked up 19k miles in the 182 in 5 months lol

 

[MrMark]

according to What Car, 40k is average for a 02 plate clio

 

[Bushiee46]

bout average that

 

[miltage2]

sounds about right matey

IMO if a you're buying a 3 year old 172 and it's only done 15k or something, how do you think it's going to have been driven? It's going to have been ragged the f**k out of at weekends. So there's pluses and minuses to high and low miles.

It doesn't always follow that a low mileage car will have been ragged at weekends. I have an 03 reg 1.6 and she has just clocked up 15.5k. She has never been ragged, infact she has been severely babied. I guess it just depends on the driver.

40k on an 03 is absolutely nothing to worry about at all.

 

[Brasseye]

seems about right..... for the year


No point in having a car and not using it
wont be worth that much more when you come to sell

Just if there a choice the lower miles might sway it

 

[Laura]

58 on a 02 , still runs sweet no problems at all

 

[KM CLIO]

thats ok then, i'll stop worrying now...




isnt my exhaust due to drop off about now tho, lol
