Subaru Forester 2001: Value over 100,000km?
I ASSUME you are concerned about your car losing value when it hits the 100,000km mark. There does seem to be a perception that once a car has done 100,000km it is on the slippery slide in terms of reliability etc. But if you like your car and it is in good condition, then why sell it? The reality is that 100,000km is still a low mileage in today's terms when cars are better built and more reliable than ever before. If, on the other hand, you want to swap to a newer car to keep pace with the market, then sell it.
