i bought a used car which the dealer said is driven only 40000km . but later on the car started giving undue problems on getting checked at the authorised service station and later meeting the first owner,i came to know that it was sold to the dealer last month only and it was already driven more than 165000km when sold.

I am in the US and am unfamiliar with the law in India, but if I were you I would first go to a lawyer (barrister) and explain the situation, assuming that the information you have learned is factual, and the previous owner is willing to back up your claims of the rolled-back odometer. I would think that you would have some recourse under the fraud laws in your country. Here in the US, it is very illegal to do this; the dealer is subject to fines and penalties, in addition to being liable for reimbursing the value of the automobile.
I hope this info helped somewhat. Good Luck.

I guess its totally foolish to buy a 2nd hand car just on lookin at the meter....i guess you shud have asked for a test drive or few day possesion permission (in return of somethin!!)..anyway if anythin like that was promised by the dealer on paper(which i guess might not be the case) then u can easily approach local police or (bribe the police and ask them to screw up the dealer..its possible in india!!).....else u stand no chance without legal papers in a country where u are not considered alive if u aint got ur birth certificate!!

Don't know the law in India. US has stringent laws and the dealer must take back the car and will be heavily fined.
There are ways to determine mileage to a limited extent. If the pedals are badly worn, or replaced, door and trunk seals may be bad or replaced. Floor mats, bad or new.
Best way is to have a trusted mechanic examine it. If a dealer refuses that, walk away.

while you're in great Britain, specific, it is!! If the motor vehicle is on finance, it is fully owned by utilising the finance corporation, until eventually the debt is truthfully paid off. as a result, it won't be able to be legally bought until eventually the finance is cleared. The regulation may be diverse interior the united statesA., yet it is Y!A U.ok. and eire, inspite of each and everything...
