My ex fathr in law bought a brand new cortina in 1980,
He put it in the garage , and only brought it out for its MOTrolleyes
he had it 20 Years, and it only had 200 odd miles on the clock.Vandals broke into his garage, and wrecked the car !!!!.. Total right off !!!

Moral.
Cars are for using...iether as a tool, or for enjoying

Certainly nowhere near as low as some other people's here, but my 1999 S15 Silvia has 58,000 miles on it (and somehow has also not been modified at all in its life, which is probably the more surprising fact hehe )

No, if it was clocked there'd be big scratches above the mileometer where they've forcibly removed the instrument binnacle.
Not necessarily , mileage can be correct via OBD port given the right software tools!

My 1981 T25 has 3900 miles on the clock......


...... But I suspect it has been round the clock at least once......

My father-in-law has a 1995 BMW 316 compact which he has owned since new and has about 50,000 miles on the clock. It has been garaged all its life and is saved for 'best'.
