How Many Miles Are Too Many When Buying Used Cars?

What’s Good Mileage on a Used Car? 

Nowadays, the cost of buying a new car is twice as much as a used car would, and the depreciation of a new car happens very fast. For most drivers, purchasing a used car is the best option considering getting auto financing. There’s no hard-and-fast rule that says how many miles are too many when buying used cars. On average, a car can travel 12,000 miles/year approximately. So, to determine whether a car has good mileage, simply multiply miles/year by its age. That means good mileage for a car that’s 8 years old is 96,000 miles. In general, considering a used car with low mileage is a good choice. Continue reading the Motors Northwest blog post to learn the general guidelines to keep in mind when opting for used cars.
