    To be honest I can easily believe low K's on a VR6. To fake it you would have to take out the cluster and replace it, and the VR6 clusters are different to 2.0. So dunno how many there are of those around, but yeah someone would have to really wanna con you to do it I reckon.

    Theres also plenty of low mileage mk3s around, I found a 3 door on carsales the other day with under 50k.

    There's is/was a couple of mrk 3 cl/gl's with under 100k. Quiet a regular thing, as the market they can attract. This is assuming its the original owner.

    Not sure if anyone cares or anything but i went and had a look at the vr6, looked good on the outside but drivers seat was in a fairly bad condition and had seen alot betters days.

    Had a quick search in the car and found log books.... last service last year had the odometer at 320,000km and it sounded like the timing chain was about to come loose.

    Thanks for all the reply's guys again much appreciated

    I paid 6500 for mine with 71,000km on it and probably in not as nice condition. Thats a great price if you can get rego and auction fees thrown in!!!

    People are willing to pay 10k for a nice VR6, they are a relatively desirable car.

    Another way to find out is to ring the rta (or equivalent) and ask em what k's it has done. I know in nsw when they update the rego each year the k's is recorded on the pink slip and then sent to the rta.

    I wish that was around when I was looking for my car. Because I am impatient I bought an Auto VR6 for $8900. I would have killed for a manual in that condition at that price.

    Is it just me or is that thing running extremely high ride height and some gnarly positive camber on the front wheels?

    Almost looks like the engine isn't in there : )

    That white gauge cluster is aftermarket, which would explain the dodgey kilometre reading.

    In the ad it states :Odometer: 67,692 kms. showing on Odometer" - 'showing' being the operative word, and they know it.
