I think you need to remove the rear boot lining, the front under tray and take a good look at the underneath (or your mechanic).

a well kept low mileage car should have nice looking CV joints and boots, minimal rust anywhere underneath and clean looking suspension. discs and pads should look meaty. Interior should also look super clean with minimal wear and tear.

It should naturally drive well .

Mine was re-built in 2012 with the chassis being dipped so there is no rust but as a track car, the underneath has seen better days. I would be getting simpsons to strip the bottom and replace/clean/ powder coat all the bottom metal bits and replace all linings.

although all this work can be done at a cost, there is nothing to tell if the car is a genuine 13000km car unless you do all the checks mentioned by NZ m3 in a separate thread. buy on condition. if all the above checks out, mileage is likely genuine
