Mileage matters, but it doesn’t tell the full story. Understanding what’s “high” for a diesel van helps you buy with confidence.

🚐 Why Diesel Vans Handle Mileage Differently

Diesel engines are built for long-distance use.

✔️ Pros

• Designed for higher mileage

• Often more durable when serviced properly

❌ Cons

• Poor maintenance shortens lifespan

• Stop-start use can cause wear

🔍 Mileage vs Maintenance

Condition often matters more than the number.

✔️ Pros

• Well-serviced vans can last longer

• Motorway miles are usually easier on engines

❌ Cons

• High mileage with poor history is risky

🧭 Final Takeaway

High mileage isn’t a deal-breaker if the van’s been cared for.
Always weigh mileage alongside service history and usage.
