High mileage RS twingo?

[Gooey32]

Hi,

Looking at getting an RS twingo, going to look at a clean looking one tomorrow but its done nearly 80k (just had service and cambelt done) - it is cheap though!

Should higher mileage ones be avoided? What should I look for?

Thanks for any advice!

That's what I thought, thanks for the quick replys. Might go take a look anyway just to get a feel for it then (not actually driven one yet!)

Hopefully be back soon as a member with an actual twingo!

It's got 32,000 miles over what it should.

When you put it like that!

Think I'll just avoid it (so I'm not tempted!) and save a few more pennies for a model with around the <40k mark. I'll get the budget up to 6k and see what's out there in a month...I'm being impatient I think as I'm rocking a 1.2 60bhp clio at the moment after selling my B6 S4 (wife wanted a new house!) - need an RS in my life soon!

Thanks again for all the replies, much appreciated.

Have run a search for Matt and sent him a pm. How customised is it? Any pics anywhere? Don't want anything way over the top as its going to be used as a daily and the wife will use it too!

Thanks for the tip off though....

Cheers.
