Should I Be Concerned About High Mileage?

My X5 is an '03, so technically, two years old. However, we bought it in November of 2003. As of today (16 months of ownership), we have racked up a little over 29k miles. Should I be concerned about this? Is this too many miles? What's going to happen in two or three years when I want to buy the new X5 and my current one has so many miles? What is this going to do to my trade-in value?

We may be driving up to NJ in May (another 1300 miles round trip), and I am really starting to worry about this. We would drive my wife's Jaguar (X-Type), but I hate that car (which is partially the reason why my X has so many miles -- she hates it too). I'm glad the lease on that jag is up in June.

Or... should I just enjoy my car and not worry about it?

Opinions? Thoughts? Comments?


thanks!

Juan
