83 Accord with 0 miles

[SZfiftyfour]

Found this on a dealer site, apparently has zero miles but no odometer pictures to back it up. I bet it was someones collector piece until it was damaged.
Thats an 83 civic beside it; also mint with 63k mi.

[MessyHonda]

i would buy it and store it away for another 20 years

[A18A]

indeed, i would build a big garage for cars like these, find the best of the best (like this one) and store them in there and just polish them every day

Civic looks tight next to it as well. Cherry indeed.

I don't understand how it has 0 miles, they had to move it around, it atleast has to have a few miles on it.

[SZfiftyfour]

^^Same thing i was thinking. even brand new cars dont leave the factory with 0 miles. Maybe it only has 10ths?

[Hash_man_Se_i]

0 miles or not, it must be low, that thing is mint, and not that expensive.

...and needs everything replaced that is rubber.

[2ndGenGuy]

Maybe they didn't know how many miles were actually on it, did the 82-83 models have a 5 or 6 digit odometer?

[bank2me]

Good question I wonder how there could be 0 miles on it? wtf? Looks mint though

[knarg]

maybe the ferris bueller trick works on the 2g O_O

Its got 6 digits plus a 10ths


I guess it could be possible if the car was trailered from the dealer, to a garage, and then stored? We need a 3geez agent to investigate.

thers no way its got 0 miles
its at a pre owned car delership for one and for two the car lot is a hyundai lol

Yeah, the dealer probably just put 0 miles in the blank or maybe the ad did that by default if you left that parameter blank. I would think if it really had ZERO miles, it would be a bigger mention (and a higher price). I've seen ads with 0 for the mileage on other sites, too.

[SZfiftyfour]

Yea that would be a major selling point, and for it to not even have a "proof picture".

[Ichiban]

The 82-83 clusters register Km's/mi to 100 000. And going backwards does not wind them back, like it does on my Chevy pickup. I call BS on the 0 mi claim.

Edit: By 100 000, I actually mean a maximum possible reading of 999 999. So yeah, six digit.

[A18A]

either way, it's still one very minty lovely car

it has a dent on the trim under the driverside tail light :-O!!!!!!

[Hazwan]

Damn you guys sig confuses me!

[NotFast]

It confuses me too! I keep thinking you post several times.

[AccordB20A]

lol hahahahahaha they copied me!!!!

ncie 2g! prolly has gone around the clock once...

[2oodoor]

Damn you guys sig confuses me!

arrghhh agreed:banghead:

"Zero" miles is also used as a figure of speech or slang, the english language can get complicated and illusive in true meaning.

They could have just said that because eg. 52 miles would just get confusing.
It is pretty cherry though, and the rubber comment is wrong I would guess because my rubber is mint on both 86 models except a litte sunburn on the coated mouldings, even my 94 had that though.

Tyres will probably be lethal except for low speed short runs. My 83 still had 4.5 m/m on the original Michelins, a short run (with bendy bits) soon had the sidewalls cracking. There has been a recent case in GB of an MG owner buying a nos tyre which blew out on the motorway, causing a fatality, the tyre was later found to be over 20yrs old. John
