Hello

I'm looking to buy an Audi A8 (2004) which has done around 90,000 miles in just over 3 years from new. No real problems with the service history or anything. The chap tells me these things 'eat up' miles no worries.

What do you reckon?
Is that just too high mileage?
Should I buy an A8 with more sensible mileage?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks people

The 04 model isn't the best D3 A8 to buy because it has the most problems, 90k miles is a lot on an 04 for the reason audi didn't use synthetic oil in the audi V8 engines until 05 which means the 04 probably has a little more wear and if you start using synthetic it would leak like a grandma bleeding.
On the other hand i have seen a few 04 A8's with over 150k and they were still running strong so i guess it depends on how well it was taken care of. If you want the A8 get a good record of its oil changes and major services.
