Is a high mileage Volkswagen Polo an issue?

Is 48,000 miles too many on a 2011 Volkswagen Polo powered by the 1.2 70hp petrol engine?

Hi Pat,

Probably not. It would mean that the first owner has really been racking up the miles, but if it has a complete service history and you don't get the feeling that it's been abused or uncared for, then it should be fine.
