Hi considering to buy a nz new c180 kompressor that has done 62000km for around $20k is it a good price and is there any common problems or things to look out for. The car has been fully serviced

The price seems fair given the very low mileage for the age and the fact that the car is NZ New with a full service history.
While it must be realised that the car is approaching 9 years old, the mileage and history should dictate that there's plenty of life left in it yet.
Being a European car, it's likely to be more expensive to service and maintain that a mainstream Japanese model, but there's nothing of particular note that would be cause for concern.
We would recommend you have a pre-purchase inspection, as in the event there are any serious defects present, they could be expensive to fix.
