How do i turn back mileage?

Are you a complete low-life, who is attempting to perform fraud ?

Disinterested means _either_ "without self interest" OR "not interested"/"having lost interest"

One possible genuine reason is that his car is a peugeot 307 - many of them left the showrooms with the odometers set to measure kilometers (IIRC), so the apparent 'mileage' is ~60% higher than it should be.

He probably didn't, at that point ;)

You are Wilt and I claim my £5

I'm guessing it was relatively new at the time if it was only wound back by

And I reckon if there was a genuine and non-fraudulent reason he'd have stated it.

The message from Albert T Cone contains these words:

Not in my world it doesn't!

The message from "PM" contains these words:

I ain't read that for ages - must look out my copy.

Um. I can't really argue with that.

It was a £500 banger, with 110,000 miles showing, a broken speedo, and a week old MOT showing 122,000 miles.

So, a real numpty ;) I didn't care about the mileage, I just wanted to haggle and he was having none of it, Siani got a knackered Xantia instead and loved it.

Albert T Cone ( snipped-for-privacy@yahoo.com) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying :

Haven't Peugeot issued a recall for that, though?

God, can you imagine the average Peugeot dealer getting it right? It'd probably come back with the LCD displaying 'F*ck You' in arabic, or something.

Or in a Brummy accent - isn't the 307 built at Ryton?

I think it's assembled there. Built implies it's actually intended to stay together...

You mean like me, and this thread?

Yes, but the 'fix' involves correcting the increment variable in the BSI so that it increments in miles rather than km from that point on, but they don't (i.e. have been specifically instructed by peugeot not to..) reset the mileage reading to the correct value. If you whinge at peugeot for long enough they extend your warranty to shut you up.

I supsect they are concerned about people who have already had the correction going to another dealer at a later date and having it 'corrected' again, and thus 60% shaved off the apparent mileage, and thus be implicable in a fraud charge or something.

Cue hackles raised on literally dozens of Coventry-based readers...

Well, potentially, but surely they could store all mileage corrections on the main computer that main dealers use to look up service records from any main dealer around the country, couldn't they?
