As long as the car has been maintained. Should be good over 200,000 miles!

Like said, it all comes down to how well it was taken care of.

The average annual miles that are put on the car are between 12,000-15,000 a year. But that means nothing if the car hasn't been mantained. After some simple addition you can figure the car has only been driven about 10,000 miles a year. Which is below the average. Still, it depends on how well it was kept.
