Worth buying a high-mileage Yaris?

Worth buying a high-mileage Yaris?

I am about to buy a 2008 Toyota Yaris sedan with 189000 kilometres on it. Just wondering if it is worth buying with this many kilos on it.

Our answer:

Hi Micky,

That’s slightly high for the year, and for a Yaris (which tends to be a short-haul kinda car), but it’s not excessive. As long as the car is in excellent condition and comes with a full and complete service history, it should be fine, but you’re going to have to expect some wear and tear issues on a car approaching 200,000km.
