The mileage doesn't mean much and is only a rough indication of possible condition.

What's likely to be worse condition for example.

Two identical cars. One has 100,000 miles. 80% of that is motorway / or general driving in top gear.

The other has 50k miles and 100% of that is short trips around town.

I keep seeing this, people presuming a higher mileage car means it has sat on the motorway all its life. The majority of cases this is true but not always. My mates wife is a nurse/carer who does home visits and easily racks up 500 miles a week in her private car and rarely ventures on a motorway.

I'm not presuming that, just wanted to point out that mileage of vehicle doesn't always reflect wear and tear on components.
