Which of these two Toyota Prius to buy?

Which Prius should I buy? I got two Toyota Prius offers recently. First one is 2005 with 67k miles for €6,000. Second is 2008 with 120k miles for €7,500. The 05 Prius has been looked after better than the 08 one. I am thinking go for the 08 one, but worry about the high mileage.

Could you offer me some advice please?

Any advice on a BMW 7 Series?

Hi guys,

I've been looking at a 2007 BMW 730Ld for chauffeur work. One owner from new who is also a chauffeur, all timing chains replaced and gaskets and seals and full auto transmission service done. There's 160k miles on the clock.

Any advice on this model BMW please?

Cheers,

Kev

Which of these Toyota Avensis to go for?

Thinking of buying one of the two cars mentioned below:

2009 2.0-litre Toyota Avensis D-4D Luna four-door with 145,000km on the odometer or 2010 2.0-litre Toyota Avensis Strata with 87,000km on the odometer. The 2010 model is €995 dearer, but with a difference of 58,000km on the odometer it might be a better buy? Both are diesel. Other than a lower mileage, do you have an opinion which is better? Also what is the max mileage one can expect to get over the lifetime of this car

Many thanks. Marlen
