130'000 or 61'000 Kilometers? Which one should I buy?

[Gabriella]

Hi there

We need a bigger car (we now own a Volvo V50) and would like to buy a XC90. We have two offers and are not sure, which car we should buy:

- 2003 2.5, 7 seats, 130'000 kilometers, black

or

- 2003 2.5, 5 seats, 61'000 kilometers, silver

Both cars are similar, except the number of seats and of course the kilometers. Both are equiped with navigation system, telephone, black leather seats with memory driver's seat and so on.

The one with 61'000 kilometers is about 7000 dollars more expensive than the other one.

I don't think we would ever REALLY need seat number 6 and 7, but it's a 'nice to have', of course... If the silver one had 7 seats, we would buy it in an instant, but now we're not sure...

Why is buying a new car so complicated? :rolleyes:

Thanks for any opinion! :)

I think you just answered your own question ;)

Go for the silver, easy to keep nice and clean, the last 2 seats wont be used. But... around 100000km you will need to change the wheelbearings back, thats my experience with two XC90`s.
