Modern engine modern fuels mileage shouldn't be a deal breaker. look for tail tail signs like smell the transmission fluid dose it smell burnt is it brownish red.look under the oil fill cap is it clean with no gunk built up, shine a light down the fill hole and see how clean or gunky the valve train is. look to see if things like oil pan, trans pan and areas like that show signs of leakage. take a look at the bolts on the trans pan and oil pan show signs of being wrenched on like rounded corners on bolt heads and missing washers you can tell a lot by just looking. most likely it's okay but these are things that can show you a lot about the condition of your purchase with out asking a question or turning a wrench.
