2nd hand car: milage vs model year?

[bearock02]

Goodpm mga sir! Ask ko lang kung ano po priority pagnaghahanap ka ng 2nd hand car? Low milage ba or latest model year. Balak ko po kasi bumili ng alterra 2009 model, 900k bigay 7k lang milage. Thank you mga sir

sa akin, how it was maintained and used is the first priority. second is mileage, third is price. last priority and model.

meron dyan, bagong model, pero barubal gumamit tapos binabyahe pala every month sa bicol, so ang taas ng mileage nun...
higher mileage means, higher wear and tear, resulting in the need of higher maintenance.

i agree model is for the looks only or certain features. pero nasa maintenance talaga ng previous owner at condition ng car.

Try to see the service record of the unit if there are parts being replaced and check the insurance campany if the owner claims damages due to act of nature or accident.However, most insurance company will not disclose this information.

Mileage muna adn the year model.

Ondoy happened in Sep-2009, I hope it's not flooded.
