I had a look at a 2010 LV MKII auto yesterday at a large Adelaide dealer, took the car for a drive, it felt great to me. We sort of arrived at a price to get the vehicle. The only thing that has confused/concerned me is the kms, 26000k. I queried them about this & they say it was a second car for the previous owner. The car looks great, its for minister for war & finance, she cant drive a manual. The dealer gives a guaranteed title with the sale. Should I get a revs check or just go with my gut feeling?
here is a link to the car http://ninemsn.carsales.com.au/deale.../?Cr=8&sdmvc=1 your thoughts & input is appreciated |

I wouldn't fret about the low mileage.
My Mrs has had her Suzuki Vitara for just over one year (from new) and it's showing 6,000km. On that basis, hers will be showing 24,000km after 4 years......some people just don't use their cars enough! |

It actually looks more like a Mk1, should have y-spoke wheels and Sony audio in a Mk11.
A bit more like this http://www.carsales.com.au/dealer/de.../?Cr=2&sdmvc=1

 OP should bring this up with the dealer and use it as an excuse to knock some off the price... (depending on how much you value the extra features, or more importantly, how much the dealer thinks you value them...)Aside from above, the only other new feature that the LV Mk II had (I think, someone correct me if wrong) is the Ford SYNC Bluetooth and voice recognition. The button for that is on the volume control stalk at approx. 8 o'clock behind the steering wheel. Again, you may or may not care... Edit: Did the LV Focus come with rear parking sensors, even as an option? I thought no. But your car has suggestive-looking 4 dots on the rear bumper...

Reverse sensors were a dealer fit accessory only. Bluetooth with voice control, USB port are all mk2 features, so yes, I'd be using it a as leverage for a better price or a reason to look for a mk2.
