car milage/hpi

I am getting a 97 previa on friday and travelling 9 hours to get it. The milage is over 120, 000 is this average for this year and how good are the previas with the milage being high.

Also would like to hpi the car before i get it which is the best way to do this?

    Sounds a little high to me 12,000 a year or so.
    I'd imagine its feeling its age by now.
    If you don't know anything about cars I'd get an RAC inspection before I handed over any cash.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    I have an 1992 Estima (like a Japanese Previa) and it's well past 100k miles now with no problems at all. The only significant difference is that the Previa will have a petrol engine which needs a regular service history. Given that, you should have no worries.
    Can I help?
