Why would BaT advertise this as a "28k-Mile 1974 Porsche 914" without verifying the mileage? |

Why would BaT advertise this as a "28k-Mile 1974 Porsche 914" without verifying the mileage? Because they (BAT and the seller) have no integrity. BAT has been bought by Hearst Automotive Group in 2020 and it is nothing more than a cash machine to a corporate conglomerate. BAT has no direct liability for what a seller might claim. BAT verifys nothing as is clear from the photos. I copied the quote directly from the BAT listing. Odo "shows 28k miles" - that is true. What isn't true is that isn't the actual mileage as is clear from the photos and the detective work others have been doing on this car. From my prior post: This whole BAT "shows 28k miles" stuff is (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) knowing full well that they haven't lied to a degree that can be contested in a court of law but knowing full well that the car really isn't a 28K original miles but is really 128K. While BAT is a fun site to look at and potentially a means to connect enthusiast sellers -- it is still Buyer Beware just like Craigslist, EBay, or any other listing medium. |
