    161k is pretty high for any normal motor.

    What kind of car is it?

    161K on a 1997 is normal yearly driving mileage...

    As long as it was taken care of, it should go for 200k easily!

    Things to look for:

    Inspect the oil, trans and coolant levels.
    Start it cold and hot, observe how it runs.
    Inspect around the intake manifold. Or have someone do it.

    Other then that, check all the basicis, any warning lights on and all electrical.
