Hey guys. I feel that this S80 had it's odometer rolled back somehow. Not sure how easy it is but this car's interior does not look like it has only 67k miles of use. What do you think?

 

Get the VIN, do a Carfax report. That will show dealer and major shop services to see if the mileage seems appropriate. If the car has a manual odometer, its possible the gear broke for a while, if the car has a electronic odometer then somebody would need to have access to manipulate the DIM data. Not sure if that can be done via the dealer tools or not.

 

Interior looks good except for the center amrest and parking brake cover. But those things always look like crap after a few years. Remember it is an 18 year old car. It`s not a valuable enough car that anyone would bother turning the odometer back on. If it had 167,000 miles on it it would be on a lot for the $3000.

 

I've actually owned this exact model and I bought it used with 160k miles. The armrest/center console and parking brake looked nothing like this. Not even close and it had almost 100k more miles. I know every car is different but the wear on this car's interior seems excessive.

This dealer also seems to deal exclusively in older cars and may want to maximize profits if they developed some techniques.

 

Not to mention the steering wheel looks too worn out for 67k miles.

 

Mine looked exactly like that, but the rest of the interior was real good. If it doesn`t feel right then run away.

 

I want it to be real because I love that car and the body looks excellent but my gut is telling me no.

Thank you guys!

 

You would think that a performing a Federal offense by rolling back the odometer is not worth a few hundred dollars. Also a new cover for the armrest is $20 and a steering wheel cover is the same. If they are that savvy they would have done that too. But if your gut says no then go with it.
