Hi chaps

I'm just looking for opinions here

I've come across a lovely 993 Coupe with 58k miles and FPSH.

One fly in the ointment for me is that 3 years ago the odo stopped working and a new one was fitted by an OPC - all documented with paperwork etc but the new one was not adjusted (if that's even possible or common practice) so now it has a reading of a few K miles on.

The car comes with the original failed ODO in a box.

So I have no concerns on the legitimacy of the miles etc but worry this might be off-putting to buyers when I come to sell it in years to come.

Would this put you off if you were a potential buyer?

Also is it actually possible to wind on the miles (if I were to buy it) so it all reads correctly again?

Many thanks in advance

Tanks for the feedback chaps

I think if i go for it then I'll send the OE speedo off the a company Ive found, have it fixed and adjusted to show the current mileage.

I just like things to be right and that would bug me
