Prod. mileage on a new car

[riffwraith]

This is nothing but pure curiosity...

If I buy a brand new 540ix, how many produciton miles should I expect to see on it?

Estimating an acceptable delivery mileage can vary by manufacturer and dealer, location of production and final delivery. The general rule is that anything under 200 miles is acceptable for a new car. That allows enough capacity for transport from the shipping port or between dealerships if the car has to be sent to a new showroom. Most new cars have far fewer than 200 miles. You should keep a number of factors in mind when evaluating what's an acceptable number of miles, including the journey from storage compounds overseas, loading and unloading from ferries, and inspections.
