Is 130,000 miles considered high for a 4-year-old Mazda 5?

I have been looking at a Mazda 5. The mileage on it is 130,000 miles and it's a 56-reg. I can't seem to find out what a high mileage is on the Mazda 5 - could you help please?

Around 10-12,000 miles per year is average on this type of vehicle, so anything more than this will be considered high. 130,000 miles in four years or so is very high.
