Toyota RAV4 2008 FAQs

Is 300,000km excessive for a 2008 Toyota RAV4?

That’s getting up there for any car, even though modern engines are capable of much greater distances than their older relatives. But that sort of mileage does raise some questions.

Those start with how complete is the service history. If there are any gaps, this would be a car to avoid, as any vehicle with that sort of distance covered will only be as good as its servicing and maintenance allow. The other question is what sort of life the car has led. Three hundred thousand kilometres sounds like a lot, but if you break it down to kilometres per year, it works out at less than 18,000km per annum, which is well within the bounds of normality.

However, the bottom line is this with all high-mileage vehicles: You might get lucky and get another 150,000 trouble-free kilometres out of the thing, or it might go bang tomorrow. That’s the punt you take and that’s why high-milers are cheap to buy. Which is another way of saying that even with a full service record, a RAV4 with that sort of mileage would still need to be cheap.

Toyota RAV4 2008: Is it too good to be true?

On average a 2008 RAV4 Cruiser would have done between 90,000 and 150,000 km, and its value on the private market would be $13,500 to $15,500. On that basis it looks too good to be true, which usually means it is. I wouldn't think of buying a car I haven't seen and checked out myself.
