Hi Gary, assuming you can get it started and it drives correctly with no warning lights and has full service history, I would say it would be ok to buy - depending entirely on price.

With that mileage I would say it needs to be less than £2000 - or walk away.

Good luck

Dave
 
As thebiglad said, if it's got that far, chances are it'll keep on going.

And if every major component HAS been replaced...no worries!!!
