Teased speedometer & five check points before you buy a used car

The most frequent query that occupies the purchaser of handled car is, if the odometer shows the real covered kilometres. Is sold Volkswagen Golf 1.4, model 2002, with 34.000 km, 9.000 Euros. Occasion, you think. It can be little overpriced, but where I will find car in the market handled with so much few kilometres in speedometer? Attention however. Your joy should be accompanied from hesitancy and contestation. Strong is the car that, with base his category, would be supposed to cover on average above the 12.000 km per year, to present itself that it didn't make nor 7.000 per year? There are a lot of salesmen in the market, professionals and private individuals that resort to what is called teased speedometer the car while they have became experts doing this... Moreover, the good quality of their modern cars allows they present a general picture near that of new. Because therefore the kilometres that are entered speedometer have decisive importance in the sale, while they guide your choice, they determine to a large extent the price and constitute guide for the maintenance and the potential repairs that will need you make, you make sure that they are real. That’s how:

Before the market The five check points: Be consulted firstly the odometer and you see how much kilometres it is quoted. Then you examine this number with critical disposal. Observe certain elements that testify the deterioration of car. Their picture should correspond in the degree of deterioration that indicates the odometer. This elements should not neither have aspect of bigger deterioration than quoted, neither show completely new, while it can they were replaced in order to throw ash in the eyes and they justify the kilometres that is entered the odometer. Follow the directives with the following hierarchy. 1. Cavity in the handles Above in the sheet-metal, in the inner department of door behind the handle, the scratches reveal the age of car. If it is very many, you calculate use above 80.000 km. 2. Investments Cavers of pedals, the handhold the handle and hubcap wheel is irrefutable witnesses. It should not they present advanced deterioration or intense burnishing before the 100.000 km. 3. Rubbers It should not they are neither worn out neither brand new, if the car has in the odometer less from 20.000 km (if is in effect second, means that him has replaced, make suspect for so much few kilometres). 4. Speedometer In the proportional meters, you search carefully for imprints from fingers in the back surface of transparent plastic bodies. Search for deterioration in the screws or in festering of the table of bodies of that witness that it has been opened. Observe the alignment of numbers between them (only the bad alignment of digit 9 in left is physiologic, while indicates the passage in a superior digit). 5. Historical service If you buy from private individual, suspect his refusal you give the tariffs of last repairs and service. Only them you they will allow to determine the real age of car. Examine well dates, what it should they succeed the one the other without voids or interruptions in their rhythm. Do not accept photocopies that are easily counterfeited.

Afterwards the market Him you stepped? If you are victim of not physiologic damage for the kilometres of car or found itself forced you advance in not programmed repairs, not you delay in your reaction. Ask the examination of car from a expert. Show in a engineering that has not been involved in the sale for a first opinion. Do not limit itself in the opinions and in the impressions of friends and acquaintances. In order to compose still better upcoming - legal obviously - reactions, you search for proofs. A label in the engine that shows the last change of lubricant or a flown book of maintenance by the previous householder in baggage’s door (it has happened and this) they are even forgotten by the shifty persons that turn speedometer. Your next movement is you organise your defence. Be specifically consulted your insurer, if your contract provides legal protection, or you are addressed in company of legal protection for control by special and specialised lawyer in the subject. In case of litigation The proof that speedometer he is "teased" recommends big fraud and it renders the salesman amenable or he is private individual or tradesman. If you decide to resort to the justice, potentially you achieve reduction of price (where sued, the salesman, will return part of sum) or even the complete inversion of sale. In the second case, you return the car and the salesman entire the sum of market. Have the right to require the expenses of action of transfer, as well as part or all the sum of repairs that you realised and which you would make if the quoted kilometres in speedometer were true. If the market became from tradesman, good it would be you are addressed in the General Secretariat of Consumer, or in some union of protection of consumer. Suspect for tease Does not exist certain concrete suspect make, but more certain categories of models and ages. Lightly handled (newer the 2 years). It is mainly corporate or rented cars. Because their general picture is good, is justified easily a shooting from the 60.000 in the 15-20.000 km. Handled big age of (older 6 years). The kilometric tiredness attenuates from also - even if - tired picture of car 8 or 10 years. Most precarious models they are these with the fame of stability and reliability that they keep still good optical, but their real kilometres they would frighten the purchasers (cf. Mercedes, Audi, BMW, Volvo…) Proportional speedometer with grommets they are more easily in the shooting from digital, that require electronic tease.
