    If it's a diesel, then expect at least 20k miles per year, on that reckoning a six year old car would have at least 120k miles on it.

    I once had a diesel that had 350k miles on it, diesels do heavy mileage

    Is it diesel or petrol? And why have you chosen the particular fuel for the car?

    What sort of service history and receipts does it have? At that mileage it could be due some major wear and tear items replaced, i.e. the DMF and clutch which will cost you the bones of €1k. Timing belt should have been changed at 100k miles.
