How many k's on delivery ?
 

Just wondering what sort of variation there is with the amount of kilometres showing on your odometer when picking up your car @ delivery. How many k's did your car have before you drove off in it?

I'm guessing there should be little variation since all cars come off the same line, into the boat, off boat to a holding yard before transport to dealer.

Lets also see if there is any variation from state to state.

14 on mine

11 on mine.

7 on mine

8 on mine.

9 on mine.

7 on mine

22 on mine !!!!!!!!!!!!!

mine got thrashed...

i checked the average fuel consumption and it was at 20-25L /100

After about 100km ... it dropped to 10-11 L

so yes, mine got thrashed for the 1st 20km before i took delivery... FKN bAstards

is that a bad thing?

By the customer who has purchased it & is handing the 40K chq over for it, agreed ?

Brand new cars are transported to dealers, not driven !

Read my first post. You know, the one you thanked. My Clio had 28kms at delivery. I dint care if someone took it for a run first. I've done 350kms now.

What if the dealer doesn't have a fuel pump and the nearest one is 4kms away. Would you want them to give you a car with an empty tank instead?

And which dealers have you worked at to be this authority on the industry?

that's definitely not the case all the time.
