im going to buy it today the mileage is 124000. cambelt was last changed 45000. its a 50 mile journey home. im paying £1850 for it. im going to be really worried:puke:
Get a water pump and all auxillery belts and pulleys as well. O my god cant belive uv done 80,000 miles since it was last changed. Iv been told that 60,000 is max and u should have it done every 50,000. Get it done sharpish

Take it easy on the way home, don't overrev the the engine, let the engine warm up gently, and keep your fingers crossed. ;)
