Hi guys, I've agreed to buy an A3 from a garage in Redditch and am due to go down to pick it up first thing tomorrow. Thing is, i just did a check using www.mycarcheck.com and although nothing comes up with writeoffs and things, the mileage given doesn't match. The add on autotrader and on their website Purple Cars Limited both say 35,000 miles but the carchecker says:
93,152 miles recorded on 30 Nov 2011
75,326 miles recorded on 7 Feb 2011
53,012 miles recorded on 19 Jun 2010
35,182 miles recorded on 14 Nov 2009
29,582 miles recorded on 22 Sep 2009
16,501 miles recorded on 30 Apr 2009
Where does the mileage info come from? Is it reliable? The reg is RJ58 ELV, if anyone can verify the mileage I'd really appreciate it!
I've looked again at the ad and there is a photo of the dash showing the mileage as 35384, does it seem like its been clocked? The ad is Audi A3 2.0 TDI 170 QUATTRO SE 5DR 2008
Any advice?
