Want to buy a low mile '83 300D? Only 333,000 miles
For me it's a combination of price and condition. If a car has 700,000 miles on it, but starts easily from cold, runs and drives well, has no obvious major problems, and is priced right, I have no problem with it. If it has 100 miles on it, but doesn't start easily from cold, doesn't run or drive well, has obvious major problems, or isn't priced right, then it's no deal.
