Hi all,

I'm currently in the market for a Q5 after recently selling my 2012 S3

I've seen a couple on Autotrader which I like the look of

I've seen a 3.0 V6 TDI on 73000 miles
- pics attached below

Is this mileage something to worry about - i.e. is it likely to be needing lots of major work soon - Cam chain etc!!

Its currently up for £17500

I would not worry about high mileage, IF that is reflected in the price. That one looks good, but IMHO overpriced.
I would advise that you check the auto box very carefully. Check the oil change history. Lookout for snatching which is a tell tale sign mechatronic and/or gearbox is on it's way out. This can be VERY expensive to replace.
Cam chain should outlive the life of the car.
