Good evening folks.

I am looking at shortly looking at buying an 08 plate facelift ST.

What would you consider to be a good mileage when looking at an ST of this age?

Thanks, Paul.

Depends how many miles your gonna be doing mate, if you aint gonna be doing many then save a bit of cash and get one with higher miles and it will even itself out, but if your gonna be doing loads then get as low as possibly ! Mine is 06 and done 26k !

As long as its not stupidly high and it has good service history with everything done on time and upto date

[chrisyalex]

Full service history is highly recommended ! particulalry from an ST specialist not FORD !

Thanks for your replies folks.

Hopefully won't be too long until i get one now. Can't wait!!

I got my 08 ST-2 a month and a half a go with 4300 on the clock and its got around 6500 on it now, low mileage examples can be found although I have to admit I was really lucky.

Mine was 3 weeks away from being 2 years old when I bought mine in May 09 with 22k on the clock. So a little high miles but not a lot. Now in Sept 10, its on 26.5k so is now low mileage @ 3years 3 months old.

So long its been looked after, mileage would be a worry. Unless its one of these ST's with 70k or 80k miles

My 08 has just gone over 15k and i dont do very many miles a week (3 miles to work )

[Tigger390]

Mine is a 58 and just had its second service with 9500 on the clock, though it is about to do 1200-1500 miles in the next week in France.

[bloodlock99]

Mines an 06 and its done 24,990, although when I bought it 3 months ago it had done 23,100. I barely use it other than weekends and for work
