Miles is a tough one. My 78 240D with 260k miles starts easier than my 82 300TD with 160k miles. And the 240 doesn't have blue smoke on start up like the 300TD does. The interior is about the same condition on both. I think like stated previously, after 250k is when things start to wear out pretty good. You don't see many with more than 300k on the clock, but lots of people have cars with 250k
