No mate just the clocks , give the dealer a call I'm sure they will sort it , if your not happy just tell them to take it back or you'll tell trade and standards cos they should have checked it . It is Lexus history until 37k, then Mercedes (honest) to 75k then local garages, they have all confirmed the stamps and mileage's as correct at time of visit. Dealer does not want to know, he says it is genuine and I would have to prove it is wrong, but I just have that feeling that with a nearly 2 year gap something has gone on. Not really sure what to do as a next step, I like the car and did only pay just over £2k for it but I like my cars to be genuine and I doubt this car is.

Thanks all for the advice, I respect mot centers can and do make mistakes but something just does not add up. Is the mileage stored on the ecu or anywhere else.

Well I looked at the service book and all seemed ok so did the deal, however stupid me did not cross reference the service book with mot's and other paperwork, see below for the differences and the fact it looks like the car was off the road for nearly 2 years yet only did a few miles, something is not adding up. 17/03/2006 37167 MOT 02/03/2007 51040 MOT 01/04/2007 49447 Service 21/05/2008 63211 Service 22/08/2008 71484 MOT 08/11/2008 68504 Cam Belt 14/04/2009 75443 Service 16/09/2009 82712 MOT 02/08/2011 83846 Service 02/08/2011 83846 MOT 01/05/2012 83876 Service 07/09/2012 83897 MOT 27/08/2013 92878 Service 27/08/2013 92878 MOT 11/04/2014 98300 Purchase miles

Picked up a is200 at the weekend, so far so good, picture below I understand it is a rare (ish) colour. Se spec and 02 plate with low miles.

First post but I have a question, is the total mileage of the car stored anywhere apart from the clocks. I have purchased a IS200 at the weekend from a dealer and the service is all stamped however after checking with the mot history it has some interesting gaps or differences. Thanks
