Can a Car with 200,000 Kilometers Still Be Driven?

[VanAiden]

A car with 200,000 kilometers can still be driven. Here are methods to verify the mileage: 1. Production Date: The mileage may 'lie,' but the production date won't. You can check the vehicle's registration date through the engine number, chassis number, and license plate number with the public security department. Additionally, the production date is also engraved on the metal plate in the engine compartment's nameplate. Altering these details is much more difficult than tampering with the odometer. 2. Car Tires: Under normal driving conditions, a tire's lifespan is about 40,000 kilometers. For a car that has traveled 20,000 kilometers, the tire tread should be worn down to about half its original depth. Conversely, if a car shows only 10,000 kilometers but its tires are almost worn out, the mileage is likely falsified. 3. Interior: The car's interior can help us determine the vehicle's 'age.' Over time, the steering wheel, gear shift, and buttons on the dashboard will become smooth from repeated use. A new car's interior should feel rough with a strong granular texture. If a car with very low mileage has a polished interior, its true identity is likely an old car.
