Company reversing car milometers within the law

For only zł. 150 a car owner can easily reverse his milometer by any number and, more shockingly, there is a company doing this in the Lublin voivodship which is operating within the law. Spokesman for the Lublin voivodship police office, Janusz Wójtowicz, said that reversing the counters is indeed legal, but "A crime is selling a car in which such an operation has been carried out, without informing the buyer. This is deceiving the other person, for which the selling party might be imprisoned." However, police rarely investigate such cases and advise having the car valued by an independent expert before buying it. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 6) M.M.
