Mileage When Delivered

oldbmwtech · 04-07-2022, 07:38 AM

How many miles where on your vehicle when you first saw it/delivered?

11 It was ordered. I know the CA put 3 or 4 on it when he filled it with gas.

22 I'm sure it was driven even though I picked up the same day it was delivered. probably to get gas and I'm sure someone drove it around a bit.

Order. It arrived Saturday and I picked it up the following Friday. I'm pretty sure they drove it around beforehand.

tbh, I would be a little upset if the employees were driving the car around when it has already been bought. but what can you do... I highly doubt they will own up to it.

idontsave · 04-07-2022, 04:03 PM

14 for me. Barely a few hours between its arrival at the dealership and taking delivery.

My dealer promised I'd be the first to drive it (besides driving it off truck) but we'll see... I would be pissed if they drove my car to get gas etc… that's why I made a custom order, to ensure I'm the only one to drive it!

I agree haha but once again are you not going to buy the car if it does have the extra miles. All of ppl expect a new car with a full tank of gas and the dealer has to drive it to a gas station to do so. They wont admit they drove it so you wont know.

Mine had 17 miles and I bought it off the lot. My brother is a mechanic and has worked at several dealerships. I make it a point to tell them I do not want my car taken home or driven other then what is necessary. You’d be surprised with what they do with peoples cars.

G42M240 · 04-08-2022, 06:46 AM

20 and it was an order. I wouldn't be surprised if they drove it around.

Shaddy66 · 04-09-2022, 04:43 AM

Mine has 12miles on it

Also it’s a perk of the job working at a dealership and being able to drive cars that most employees will never be able to afford, the cars needs Pdi and road tested before delivery, then obviously taken for fuel

No point of moaning about this, as we have taken delivery of our cars and lots of others have been waiting for months and there cars still haven’t arrived

11; ever watch the factory production videos on line?; I am sure some mileage is accumulated on the dyno at the end of production and drive out of the factory to a staging area and then on and off the ship to the VPC and waiting for transport etc. etc. and then on the truck; 11 for my no big deal.
