I put 300,000 kms plus on my last few vehicles so the mileage isn't a concern. Plus I got to see all the computerised service records that would indicate any possible past problems indicating a lemon and wether the oil was changed at the proper intervals. Other than new tires, regular tranny/coolant flushes and brakes it hasn't needed any repairs. Besides, the money saved not buying new will more than cover any possible repairs down the road.
