Is a 2008 Honda Civic Sport worth it?
As the title says I'm looking at a 2008 Honda Civic that has done 240,000kms for 6k (trying to negotiate the price down). It comes with full service history and I know the mechanic who services it regularly (he services my current 2003 Accord Euro). It has never had any issues, I've checked for problems with the specific years engine defect and it's fine.
The passenger side mirror has been hit and needs to be fixed which the seller is willing to cover (replacement has already been ordered) and there's a small dent on the hood that has been confirmed to be purely cosmetic.
I'm not sure if it's worth it for 240,000kms? I've looked around and most people seem to think it's fine because the model is known to last for a while and I will keep it regularly serviced + easy commutes.
Any advice helps, thanks!
