yeah mines around the 250k mark
obviously the previous owners are a big factor,
my last two owners were a lady with a husband that was a mechanic and loved subi's, and the one prior to that was also a mechanic.
if the cars used as a daily and the previous owners work was a world away, then it can be very hard to judge the engine condition on the odo, again like my car.
when i got my up-pipe cat taken out by doug he checked my donk (original), it was in good condition according to him.
so i wouldn't really be put off too much by k's, as others have said, history is crucial
