To Long In The Tooth Or Not?

Hi all, I am looking at buying a '98 ES300 with 241,000kms and full service history. The interior is like new and the out side need a bit of a clean but besides that it looks okay. What I am concerned about is the milage, is this to high???

personally i would stay away from that sort of mileage unless the price is really really good.

I agree with steve, it's way too high.. but if you still want it, then make sure u get it checked first by a registered mechanic and at a bargain price. good luck

good stuff. just as an FYI for others looking (like i did) as stated those kays were high seeing as the average for oz is somewhere around 15,000 a year (or thats kindof what i work off anyway as thats what i tend to do on average) so that would mean 150,000 is average so 241,000 is like 4 years worth of extra usage !
