The mileage issue could be like what happened with my bike where they accidentally flicked the clocks over to KM when they check dash lights etc, 29k km would be around 18/19k miles
Awesome Calvin, I've just subscribed to his channel. The young lad had a heart of gold and his mum helped with his steering wheel...you couldn't make that up....lol, that was me 40 years ago .... Am retired now and still love cars ❤️

You can plug the car into a computer and cross check what the gearbox is saying the millage is as its stored on that separately so they should both match.
Heads touching the rear window
You need to use a code reader like the carly code reader as it checks all the control modules which store milage separate to the main ecu. That's the easiest way of checking.

Or do an MOT check online. This car passed the MOT in August 2020 with 28k on the clock, and then passed an MOT in August 2021 with 19k on the clock.
Exactly what Calvin said, via VAG ECS you can verify the mileage via the DSG TCM.
Good luck to the lad and we'll done Calvin just being on your channel will help him loads keep up the good work quality 👍
There is a big problem with people taking out low mileage PCH and doing high mileage, then having "mileage correction" carried out. They return them to lease companies with the low mileage, sell at auction, and dealers buy from auction. That seating position though.... questionable
Great vid. Meet the owners is an excellent series!!
Respect to Calvin awesome humbling possitve role model 👏 fair play sir
DSG has its own mileage counter. This can be compared to engine ecu mileage

Are the seats broken, he cant reach the steering wheel or see over the dash !
i respect this man's grind 🤝
I work at a garage and twice now the distance travelled has been put in as kilometres instead of miles. One was the Polish owner who had it set as KM and our tester didn’t notice, the other we think the tester accidentally switched to KM when checking. I’d say that is what’s gone wrong here. Sadly, it cannot be changed! Clocking usually occurs before the first MOT anyway so that’s why it is absolutely vital to buy with FSH from a main dealer to minimise the risk.
I must be getting old but he Looks like a school kid 🤣
You could say this lad is one laid back guy 😉
Never understand how you can drive lying down, may as well have a pillow case and a duvet cover 🤣🤣
Had one of these almost identical but a manual 3 door. Great cars! Should’ve turned ESC off for the dragy runs though. Mine was 35k ish and whilst the seat bolster wasn’t as bad it was definitely getting there so I think mileage adds up. Lower foam section however was pretty weak and soft. Would recommend getting a manual stage 3 on the channel they are a handful!! Great vid
We need a day in the life of Calvin video would be awesome to see what you get up to In a full day even down to when you find time to eat between deals.👌
The worn seat is a screaming red flag that the mileage is actually higher than it claims.

The seats suffer the same as the MK2 Golf seats, fat arses and lots of getting in and out kills the fabric on the bolsters. Find someone local with VCDS (the Polo Owners Club can help) and check the millage, while you are there get any options unlocked that are still missing on the car.

It is possible to get mileage off the ECUs memory. Yes you can clock it and hide is as much as you want but there is a hard sorted “true” mileage in the ECU itself you can’t adjust, change, or code out. Volkswagen itself can access it or you could yourself with lastest vcds. Hpi checks or whatever will tell you nothing on any car and it’s virtually pointless for that purpose. Always plug into ECU with appropriate software to let you read stored memory

BMW main dealer added 20K miles to my 440i in June…! I noticed when I got home and checked VOSA website. Called them straight away and they changed it. Shows that mistakes can easily be made by dealers/MOT garages.
Thought he was navigating by the stars, but there's no sun roof. If he put the seat up, he could see out the front window.🤷🏼♂️
Hey Calvin, being a relatively new car you can find out the mileage from a vag specialist who has VCDS, if not order you're own. It's fairly simple how to spot it by checking the ECU estimated mileage, if ECU original that is no way you can adjust ecu working hours=mileage estimate with the mileage displayed on the dashboard. Hopefully you get to read this comment and ask VRS to investigate this, pretty sure they know how to.
Calvin what app do you use for a valuation on cars?
*Cars always look so good in black* 😍
I have a 2011 polo that's on 144k miles and surprisingly the seats aren't ripped which I find amazing
Fair play to this guy 💪🏽💪🏽
Ive got the same issue with mileage on my vauxhall insignia what I bought from a main dealer who did the 1st mot on it but when you check it on a car check it shows different reading 😢
Nice ride.. I owned a 1.4T polo gti full house beautiful pocket rocket.. Down fault of those cars is the dsg gearbox I repaired mine twice after the 2nd repair I SOLD IT with out regret.. The seat issue mine was suede with leather getting in the car & out you do tear that side by the door my leather was worn off that side
Big up Ben 💯
Reminds me of me now, I'm 22 and I'm pushing a 208hp is250, exhaust mods and Intake for now, but I still feel slow compared to my old Honda accord v6

Calvin sitting there like a man of the cloth as the individual sings to his ears about the sins of the car
13:37 ...yes you can... I had a new airbag/indicator unit fitted to my Peugeot back 2012 I think... and they put the wrong mileage on the Invoice/re MoT, when I got a new checker App (this year) it flagged a mileage discrepancy in 2012...I submitted the work invoice for the unit and re MoT (same place) and subsequent MoT certificates to prove the mileage put in at 2012 was incorrectly logged... so as long as you have all the history you can get it changed.

What tends to happen is female drivers tend to drive with the seat 90 degrees and all the way upto the steering wheel then don't slide the seat back to get out causing excessive bolster wear seen it many times before. Some people are more careless than others aswel to some a cars a car A to B thing to others its much much more, so we tend to care for our cars that much more.
What app do you use for hpi Calvin?
Got a Vauxhall Adam s with the recaro seats, 24k miles and the seat has worn away more then what you’d expect
Good vid Calvin could he go back to dealer and ask them to explain mileage
No matter where you buy a car from. Main dealership or motor/car trader, do HPI check and check MOT history first! Do this before you see the car. Very very important.
Yeah I reckon the 19k was supposed to be 29k but they typed it in wrong. Very unfortunate but a lovely car none the less, I love the spirit of the owner, he will go very far 😊
All dsg boxes retain the real mileage
My Polo G looked like the bucket part of the seat has been squished.. most likely a characteristic/build flaw by the sound of it
Mot check website has mileage on 21/08/2020 as 28466 and on 26/08/2021 as 19859 then on 24/08/22022 as 35362. So it looks dodgy. But it could just be a typo by the MoT tester. And this would flag up on all the car check websites.
