Toyota Yaris 1.4 Diesel

Hi,

I am in the market to replace my rusty old Nissan. I don't trust the rust will hold it together.

I saw this 2006 Yaris Diesel for £2050 and 140K miles. It seems to have a good service record.I'm going to have a look at it and test drive it but do you think its over priced considering the millage?

What should I look for for a diesel engine?

Thanks

    The Yaris diesels are good little cars. Nippy for a small diesel, very good mpg and fairly reliable. 140k is pushing it mileage wise for that price though.

    +1 RE: price.

    And 140,000 miles is a lot of wear and tear on the rest of the mechanicals, even if the engine is sound.
  • What sort of price do you recommend, its a dealer and I don't anticipate too much flexibility.
