Should I buy a campervan with 155,000 miles on the clock?

I am considering buying a 2015 Renault Trafic campervan but I am worried that the 155k mileage is too high. It has a full service history and in March it had a new timing chain, new head, new injectors, new turbo and glow plugs.

Vans generally cover much higher mileages than cars and 155,000 is fairly reasonable for a 10-year old model. With a full service history and the work that has recently been done, we'd not be put off by the mileage on this occasion.
