Do not buy that car. 280k on any car is sketchy, but a European car will be 100% disaster. Stick to Japanese. High mileage Corolla will be the most reliable car on the planet. Not as cool, but reliable.

If it has the n42 eng foreget it stick with Japanese they handle higher mileage and parts are available providing service history big help
