I've had my BDR for a little over a year and have put almost 5000 miles on it, but the weather is good enough to drive most of the year. No trailer queen here, but I agree the miles are catch 22. Too many miles could scare one depending on how it was driven. Looked at a Cobra with over 35k on it, the car was immaculate, but on the test drive it was driven hard which made me start wondering how it was usually driven. Something told me to run a compression test before agreeing to purchase, the seller wouldn't agree, and 2 weeks later the motor was in the shop. On the other hand, the miles told me it was sorted out and the seller wasn't afraid to drive it.
