How long can a 500e last? Looking to buy

Hello, I'm looking to join 500e club and started looking to buy one. I found one with 180k miles. How long can these cars last. If the owner has kept up with all the maintanence, can this car go another 100k miles. Any comments or suggestions are welcomed. Thanks in advance.

There are some 500Es with well over 300,000 miles on them here in the states. As long as the required service is done when needed...no reason why yours or any others shouldn't be as long lived.

Much of it depends on your patience and disposable cash flow !!!. I would think at 180K...the one you are looking at should of had its major work done already...hopefully !! Maint. records a must with that one. Good luck man.

...any car will last as long as you continue repairing the failed or worn parts
