Acceptable mileage on a used car?

For a car around £1,000.

I've been looking at some VW Golf MK4s, and the mileage is usually around 100,000. Kind of expected for a car thatt's 10 years old really.

VW's are pretty reliable tbh so you should be fine even with the 100k miles

The ones I've been looking at claim to have been taken care of and with full service history.

I guess as long as it hasn't been thrashed about by some bellend, then 100k mileage should be fine.

Exactly, this is your first car I assume? Most of my friends first cars were all pretty much around that mark and none of them had issues with maintenance.

Shouldn't be anything to worry about.
150k with no service history is meh
200k I start to worry
300k and you're just buying it for the frame and body.

Sounds about right. Take it to a mechanic you trust, though, obviously.

What's your budget?

For the actual car, about 1000 Bong coins.
Then I've got an other 1500 that'll cover other shit like insurance.

As long as the dude got the oil changed when it needed it'll be fine with 100K.

The rule of thumb for mileage is people usually drive 10-20k miles per year. Under 10k/yr is great, over 20k/yr I would avoid.

How old are you? Are you going to be placed on your parents insurance? Etc. Etc.

God, I can't imagine what it costs to insure a young driver on a $50k car.

I'm 22 and work three jobs. I know that struggle.

Sounds good, at 100k, that car should be ready with everything getting changed. But, lower mileage is better.

Probably

my rule is 15k miles per year on the car on average, but never go over 250k unless the engine is replaced or is a ford engine(seriously, ford engines are insanely long lasting), so it looks like you're good dude.
