[quote="Chortes"]Mine had 5 miles on the clock .When I was a mechanic the maximum road test distance you could drive was 10 miles.. and this was for fault finding so for a basic test to check brakes, lights etc 4 - 5 miles should be ample.[/QUOTE]Of course this will not be true for those of us who have bought through a Dealer via an online broker and having it delivered. In my case the Dealer is nearly 300 miles away so I expected the mileage to be whatever the Dealer confirms to me after PDI plus the distance from the Dealer to my home.
1.2 DIG-T Tekna in Pearl Black - Current expected delivery date is 13 May 2014 - actually delivered in April.
