Clocked cars

[Emil-P]

As I'm in a market for an FJ Cruiser I came across various offers from various traders.

During my due diligence I came across some folks that were clocking (adjust the mileage) the cars.

 

Since I put the effort and resources to get a proper due diligence it will a pity that this efforts goes in vain and some fellow 4x4 lover ends up with a lemon car.

Without further due here are my finding.
