A car that had only done the school run could easily be under 20k after 10 years but be utterly clapped out, while the same model doing long motorway runs could be in a better state but have 250k up. Which would be worth more?

Definately the school run-mobile; but i'd much rather have the repmobile instead. The trick seems to look for "average" mileage; now there's a sticky one!
The price guides talk of 9-10k/year as "average"; Joe Public does somewhere between 12-20k/year these days. Personally I've done around 50k/year for the last few years, and would have had any of the 120k lease cars that went back just before their first MoT...
