High mileage cars for sale

[ATM]

I got a minicab to airport for 14 quid

Guy said go to cab desk when you get back and they'll get you one for return.

I got a fancy e class but didn't ask for it. Desk guy said it was 26 quid. How does that work?

Either the Govt MOT checker site is on the blink or neither of these cars is registered on the database. Interesting....

The second ad claims 18 main dealer service stamps in the book. I'd like to know who in their right mind is servicing a 300k mile car at a dealer at £500+ a pop.

Probably somebody who needs the guarantee of a 7-series LWB courtesy car for the day, because running around in a Kia with "On loan from Bob's Garage" doesn't really cut it with the people who travel in the back?

https://www.gov.uk/check-mot-history works for the HV11 ZNX - impressive to fail on the 14th December 2016 with a damaged windscreen, to pass again on the 19th, and to have covered 966 miles in that time, as well. A very clean MOT sheet if you ask me - 2 fails, one for a headlight, one for an indicator out and the damaged windscreen.

I'd be surprised if BMW would actually guarantee you a LWB 7 as a service loan car, and even if it did, whether it would be insured for commercial use and that the daily mileage limit would be anywhere near the 2 - 300 miles a day these things seem to be doing. I wonder if the vendor has seen something like this....

I'd assume it would be more profitable to knock a couple of hundred thousand miles off the odometer and lose the history file, than to fake a few service stamps.

Lets face it, if it's a privately owned car, and you can run a six-figure car for 300-400k miles, a £500 oil change is probably what you spend on a bottle of wine.

And if it's a government car, well, it's probably under a bigger supply contract direct with BMW that covers servicing too.

I reckon the stamps are probably real. Maybe I'm naive, but it feels right to me.
