Is it worth going for this high mileage Mazda6?

I'm thinking of buying a 2008 Mazda6 2.0-litre Sport with 232,000km on the clock. Is it worth going for?

Hi John,

Great car, the Mazda6, and lovely to drive. Two things though: you may well find that 2.0-litre petrol to be both a touch thirsty and, consequently, very hard to move on again come resale time. And at that mileage it's imperative to make sure that the car has a full service history and that major maintenance work such as timing belt replacements and oil changes have been done.
