🚗 **How Many Kilometres Is Too Many for a Used Car?**
One of the first questions Melbourne buyers ask when looking at a used car is:
**“How many kilometres is too many?”**
There isn't one magic number.
A **100,000 km car isn't automatically a bad car**, just as a 50,000 km car isn't automatically a great one.
What matters is the bigger picture:
✅ **Age of the vehicle** – consider kilometres in relation to how old the car is.
✅ **How it was driven** – highway kilometres can be very different from constant short city trips.
✅ **Service history** – regular maintenance is important regardless of kilometres.
✅ **Overall condition** – inspect the engine, transmission, brakes, tyres, suspension and interior.
✅ **Vehicle history** – check the car's history and title before buying.
For many Melbourne buyers, a **low-kilometre used car can offer an attractive balance of age, condition and future ownership**, but don't automatically reject a well-maintained higher-kilometre vehicle.
