Default Re: Car dealer who wiped odometers of eight vehicle jailed for three years

one of my friends had the same thing happen, didn't find out till he himself put the car up for sale on carsales and was sent an email from them stating it had been previously advertised a few years earlier with around 80,000km+ high odo reading. Turns out the history report he got from the person he bought it off had been doctored and they didn't put the vin on carsales when they advertised it.

He ended up getting his own report and yep there it was in black and white his car went down in value by around 8grand and kms went up. He's since decided to run it into the ground or turn it into a track car.

also for people who don't know the history reports or at least the ones in Vic also state the odo reading at each dealer service which is a good thing to have.
