Whys that then and what difference does it make if its 'smashed up' ??

I have a 27 yr old BMW 6 series that has a genuine 40k (would be a lot less if I hadn't driven it to Spain several times) and a Firenza that's 44 yrs old with 32k miles on it and there's no reason why that Sapphire couldn't have 27k genuine. The likelihood of it being 27k and not 127 isn't high but its entirely possible.
