My car is on its last legs, tin worn has gotten a proper foothold

So looking a newer car

spotted a 2020 with 4400 miles on it

The issue

4 owners

I could assume a pre reg and then the 1st real owner when that young

Maybe a Pre reg, that was then a courtesy car, and then sold on

But 4 ?

I bought a 2006 Vantage back in 2012 that had 5 previous owners. i viewed lots of cars and this one was by far the best in terms of servicing and overall condition. i drove to the south coast to view an immaculate one owner car that was in very poor condition (plus undisclosed accident repaired)

The only thing i’d be wary of at mainstream level is a dealer dog that’s been rejected/traded in early, punted back onto the forecourt and returned again.

Buy on condition not the number of owners.

Maybe it was a pre reg than a managers car finally sold to the actual first owner & then traded/sold again.
