What that mileage & age mean

By this mileage the brake fluid and coolant should already have been replaced. Ask for the bills, not just a verbal yes.
At around 8 years and 92,000 km it's in its middle life, the service history matters more than the number on the clock. Look for consistent, on-time servicing and no long gaps.

Where to look hardest on a Ford Endeavour

On a diesel, have the turbo, injectors and (where fitted) the DPF checked, and confirm the timing belt's service history, these are the expensive failures.
With several past owners, read the paperwork chain carefully: every transfer, and the service book, should line up.
Torque-converter automatic: shifts should be smooth, with no flare in revs between gears and no delay engaging Drive or Reverse. Ask when the gearbox oil was last changed.
4x4: engage four-wheel drive (and low range, if fitted) on the test drive, and look under the car for dents on the transfer case, differentials and sump.
Whatever the paperwork says, check the reading on the clock against the service and insurance records, an odometer can be wound back and the dashboard alone won't show it.

Is the odometer genuine?

The typical Ford Endeavour on sale here reads about 92,000 km. A reading well below that for the year is worth a second look: one car we inspected read 86,273 km against 1,61,174 km in its own service history. InspektAI verifies the real kilometres against ECU, service and insurance records as a paid add-on, so you buy on the true number.
