Motorists Watch Out! Mileage Clocking Scams Are On The Rise
                     Motorists Watch Out! Mileage Clocking Scams Are On The Rise
If you are considering buying a used car then you should 
watch out. Motorists are falling victim to a car clocking 
scam which is on the increase, so you should be on your 
guard.
New research suggests drivers wishing to purchase a 
used car have more of a chance of being sold a vehicle 
with a modified mileage, costing millions of pounds each 
year. Sources say, there has been a 30% increase in 
clocking since 2014, where well over 10% of vehicles on 
the road have had their mileage artificially altered.
Second hand or used cars are thought to be 
worth more with fewer miles on the clock. So, if 
the mileage has been altered, motorists can pay 
more for a vehicle which, in reality, is not as 
valuable as they thought, and they could feel the 
pinch when they try to sell it on themselves. It 
could cost them thousands of pounds in the long 
run.
The issue is on the rise in the UK, and it’s a 
situation which may not be resolving itself 
anytime soon.
Many have put it down to people having 
enhanced knowledge of amending digital 
odometers, as well as the availability to the 
technology and mileage adjustment services 
online, which can sometimes be used for lawful, 
legitimate purposes, while others may not be.
Motorists may not be aware that clocking a 
vehicle may not only give an inaccurate portrayal 
of its worth, but it may also conceal issues with 
the car. From signs of wear or tear or any 
maintenance needs which may require repair, 
with potentially far-reaching consequences.
