I recently purchased a car, a 97 Nissan Maxima, it has around 65,000 on it when I got it.
I did a carfax report after learning about such a thing right after buying it. This is what I found: http://www.carfax.com/cfm/FSBO.cfm?report=CFX000008759065
Now, I asked a mechanic about it, he said it could be a clerical error .
Anyone who can give any advice on this is greatly appreciated.
A couple of things to point out, it was auctioned 3 years after it was purchased at 132K???? in 3 years??? is that possible. Another thing is the carfax report is kind of confusing, was its original owner a person or was it up for lease. If it was up for lease, what company leases cars with an average of 45K per year??
Then again, it is still possible. Advice needed, PLEASE!
