Hmm, need some thoughts folks on this return i had on reg / vin for pending purchase :

Date recorded Recorded by Mileage reading Total
20-Dec-2007 NMR 12,500 12,500
20-Dec-2007 DVLA 13,000 13,000
28-Dec-2007 NMR 12,926 12,926
31-Jan-2008 NMR 12,921 12,921
22-Jan-2010 DVLA 26,000 26,000
31-Dec-2010 DVLA 228,000 228,000
30-Jan-2011 NMR 27,700 27,700

I can understand the 31/12/10 is probably a typo but odo reading is currently 27k and change. Car is an 05.

What is strange is the Dec 2007 to Jan 2008

admin errors ? thoughts please !

What does the service and MOT records show. Does the seller have a reason for the very low mileage/

You will notice that all those mileages are round figures, that shows the poeple inputting them just don't care.

If history and MOTs tie up, all is good IMO

Not ALL those are round figures.

I'd be querying this one:
28-Dec-2007 NMR 12,926 12,926
31-Jan-2008 NMR 12,921 12,921

... and asking why it did only 1700 between Jan 2010 and Jan 11.

Does the service history and general wear & tear correlate with the mileage?
