Mileage discrepancy of cars still prevalent in Irish market

“Clocking” is still prevalent in the car market in Ireland, particularly for potential purchasers of UK-registered vehicles.

And buyers of UK vehicles are almost twice as likely to conduct a history check for clocking compared to a purchaser of a second-hand vehicle on the domestic market.

Online vehicle check experts Cartell.ie warned second-hand car buyers to be careful after a random check of 4,479 vehicles.
