Looking to buy a Corsa D 1.3CDTI Van, what do I need to look out for?
Do I need to worry if they have over 100k?
I never usually worry about mileage as long as they have been serviced regularly etc

Turbos are common as muck! Other than that, they ain't too bad

Only if it was previously owned by Pugnut.

Wouldn't worry me for 2k as long as the van was solid. My van C was amazing but i got rid because of the road noise. I then got a car version from an auction but the engine bay was rotten.
