Much like our bodies, where years cause wear to the body, so do miles add wear to mechanical parts and the cosmetic looks and condition of your car.

During the use of a car there are usually miles which accumulate and that old nemesis Vibration, Pollution, Moisture, and Sunlight, all of these factors cause aging our cars. It's presumed the more mileage on your car the older it is.

If you saw an add in tomorrow newspaper stating -For sale a 2010

Ford Mustang GT with 210,000 miles $15,000

Then another add that said-For sale a 2010 Ford Mustang GT with 15,210 miles

$15,000.

Which one would you most likely buy?

Now ask yourself why?

Too many miles on the first Mustang.

Food for thought.
