Oh, and I agree with Hannes. I don't think that sort of mileage is in any way a problem so long as it has been properly maintained. It'd be worth checking if there is wear in the front suspension (depends how assiduous the owner was about greasing) as this might be a point you could haggle on the price.

The fact that it has been on the market for a year doesn't necessarily mean it's a bad car; more likely it's a sign that the price is too high. I'd get in there and make an offer and see what the reaction is.
