Personally I don't think basing an opinion on a car on the mileage is a fair or accurate way to judge the car. They could have driven it for tons of miles but took car of it or they could have driven it rarely but were absolute dipshits and ruined the undercarriage by jacking it up on wrong points as an example. These are things you can't tell based off miles.

If it looks like its something you would like to drive, I would suggest you get more info and request pics, then see the car for yourself. That it the ONLY way to truly be sure of the car. And even then, you might not catch everything.

If your assuming it has spent its whole life in the NE then I would highly recommend that you thoroughly inspect the car for rust. Salted roads wreck cars. Especially older cars.

Just my $0.02.
