think I have mentioned this before, but as a reminder although Carbaba is gone, you can still get keeper counts from https://cazana.com/

once you look up the car, right click the page and click view source, then search the page for "previous owners" and you will find them :)

I don't know if these are 5 or 6 digit odometers, but the first mileage recorded in 2005 was only 18,297 so I think the mileage really is this low.

There's a blue one near me, owned by a friend's oul man. Although by the time of its registration (2002), I think it was called Premacy rather than Demio....
