[QUOTE="Tzs503gp, post: 913838, member: 19443"] Of course, I have my personal goto suggestions, but for R20k, you will struggle to find something reliable, from any brand. Take into consideration the type of driver you are buying from. Is he a placid commuter, or a weekend racer? Full service history is a big plus, but was it serviced at a dealership, or independent? High mileage doesn?t have to mean it?s on its last legs. In my experience, you will have more problems buying a very low mileage 13 year old vehicle, than a high mileage one. The mileage on this vehicle equates to 25k per year- a sweet spot for the reasons I?ve mentioned. I don?t think Dekra tests the engine and drivetrain integrity. I would have someone knowledgeable give it a lookover. If all checks out, I?d buy it, given the things you?ve said. [/QUOTE]
