Here’s a doozy, folks – a 1991 325i that’s covered just 20k miles. The car didn’t cover much ground in its first decade, after which
We were lucky enough to acquire this low mileage BMW through a friend of a friend. I am told that it was purchased way back(Carfax says 2001, But I know it was back around 1995 or so, as told to me by the son of the mother who inherited it from the father who purchased it way back)!! It was last registered in 2000, as evidenced by the Ohio tag that I removed. We purchased it from him in September of 2015
He told me that it lived in the garage up until about 2-3 years ago, when it was relocated to the driveway. We picked it up in that very spot.
...
The cosmetics weren’t as straight forward!! As you all know, BMW’s Bronzit, and Cashmere paints(Along with silver, and other high metallics), have a tendency to get “Hazy”, and “Blotchy” over the years. Being outside in the driveway for a few years certainly did not help!. As there was ZERO damage or rust, we decided to have the entire car repainted to coincide with the rest of it’s pristine time capsule condition!

Regarding odometer gears,
I require my odometer to work because I reset my trip meter everytime I fill up. How else would I know if my fuel gauge is working?
