The numbers look pretty large but remembering they're km you have 107k miles and 114k miles... for irish standards if you take 12k miles a year as an average its not very excessive.

In terms of jap cars though its crazy, mine had about half the mileage and was 3/4 years older...

What grade were they, 4? did they go relatively cheap?

ya, thought you might have meant that alright... this is what happens when i think while I type!

the red fto averages 18k miles a year, thats taking into account car being on road 6.5 years. these are company car mileage figures, and in japanese terms unheard of.

think white was grade 3, probably grade 4 when it gets here,lol

not much info on red one though

Theres something mad like 50,000 cars going through the Jap auctions every week so you do see the odd highmiler.

Will be interesting to see if the milage is different if they land here!
