    I've cash in hand and ready to start looking at cars.

    My search criteria is

    between 20k and 23k
    <= 80,000 miles

    There are some lovely machines in the 80 - 120 k miles bracket but I just dont think I should go there. Obviously I'm concerned about resale value aswell.

    We only use the car at weekends so I wont be putting high mileage on it.

    Are my concerns unfounded.

    Yes.

    Those cars will do 300,000 plus.

    80-120 is nothing.

    Any modern engine will do big miles if well maintained, there is a myth in Ireland that diesels are better for high miles not true at all.

    The higher the mileage the more important service history gets in my opinion,you get up over 100k you are looking for evidence of belts.clutches etc been done, you get closer to 150/200k you want to see suspension components etc been done.

    It's all about the history and the more recent the better, no point in seeing well documented evidence of the cars first 4 years, it's the last 2 i'd be looking for.
