I live in Egypt so these kind of cars are very rare, and cost well over 100,000 dollars for a brand new one. Some old lady is offering her Escalade for 80,000 pounds which is about 15,000 dollars. it has 80thousand miles on it and no other problems. My dad is hesitating to buy it because its 2002 but i am trying to convince him. Is there much of a difference between the 2002 version to the 2009 or 2010? How long (technically) would the car last due to its mileage(80,000)? i told him around 5 to 10 years if we take care of it, so that helped my argument. Oh and it costs 20 dollars to fill the car up here in Egypt, not too bad right? that would last a week driving on moderate drive?

Thanks
 
The 02 escalade is a bit out of date, the interior had a huge change up in 2003, which I personally would never get the 01 or 02 version

and in 2007 an enourmous change was done to every single part of the vehicle

$15,000 is probably a fair price

and my tahoe, which is pretty much the same thing maybe a few differences on the outside and inside but all the main parts are the same has 102,000 miles on it no probs, and I;'ve seen many with 220,000 miles + with no probs, their very reliable vehicles over all.
 
I see lot's of GM SUVs go well over 200,000 miles. With reasonable maintenance, yours could as well.

Some of the Escalades from that era were built in Mexico. The Arlington, TX factory built models would be preferred over the Mexican built models. There's usually a Texas shaped sticker inside the driver's door and a 1 in the first place on the VIN in Texas built Escalades.

I would say the price is a little high for a private sale. But that may or may not be the case for your market.
