Bellato Donating Members 2,713 Member For: 14y 3m 19d Posted 19/11/11 12:37 AM Share Posted 19/11/11 12:37 AM Hey guys want some advice on 2 choices I'm looking at.2006 BF MKII sedan manual, 80,000kms (colour screen but not climate control and aftermarket 18's) asking $21,500or 2007 BF MKII sedan manual, 115,000kms (climate control, partial leather) asking $19,500I didn't wanna go to many kms but whats peoples experience with these kind of kms. Like would the savings justify any maintenance I may have to fork out? I realise discs/pads and suspension is probably a bit overdue for a change, but within the first 12 months I'll be upgrading all that anyway.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some owners worship their cars till 200,000klm. Some owners flog it out by 50,000klm. You will only know after you have tried it. And if your still unsure, invest in an RACV test or similar to put your mind at ease. Can be the best $150 you spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
