Default looking at 3 door

I would appreciate some advice I spotted this on pistonheads.
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/292185.htm

It up for 7.8k. Its got everything going for it, except that I live 350 miles away from it and the car has done 140k. But the engine was rebuilt by the godfather 24k ago+ the suspension has been renewed.

I think from what i can see that its a real clean car. original panels.
But the mileage at 140k, If I was to buy it and then sell it later it's gonna be hard to sell it, because the high mileage just puts you off a bit. even tho it only works out to 7k/year.

MY question is would you buy it if its the best you can afford but you would want to sell it in the future?

Or would you buy a lower mileage say 70-80k 3 door at £8k stretching the budget, but knowing that it would ideally need an engine rebuild soon to cope with 330bhp. ???? I'm still deciding please give me some views.
