Can I get a personal contract purchase car with a high annual mileage?

No, you have to worry about mileage penalty ONLY if you are handing it back to the finance company. You can sell the car privately or trade it in to a dealer any time and the buyer can pay your outstanding balance during the transaction. Depending on your GFV you will also get an equity on your car which is normally used to buy your next car if you are going through the dealer. It's very unlikely GFV is is higher than the real value of your car which is the case you have to pay the mileage penalty.
Fair point, but you're still going to get very little for a 2 year old car with 80k on it, certainly much below the GFV and as such it's going to cost you a lot to buy out the lease.0
