When buying a used car, whats more important - mileage or number of previous owners?
We’re looking to buy a used Honda CR-V for around £7000. What’s more important, miles on the clock or number of previous owners?

Obviously two or three previous owners is better than nine or 10, and if it has had a huge number of owners then verifying the mileage could be difficult. A diesel is more likely to have high mileage and to have been used for towing.
