I have following methods:
Dashboard condition tells alot...a less driven car (under 60-70k km on odo) have a good condition scratchless dash usually with no erased a/c words, audio buttons fully intact..
The gear knob - all 1-5 and R must be clearly visible and not erased and must be properly dug..
A usually used car will have bad wiring, open the bonnet, the wire webs inside can tell u how much fankari is made..
Liana if less used is on its stock ignition coils of Denso - if its having those side baleno walay jugaru coils, iteans car has completed a long cycle and its original coils are gone..
Check the head lighs and back lights, the finish and spark in them tells alot...
Engine aur suspension tou kisi 3 lac km chali hui car ka bhi new zero meter bann jata hai...but these small things i mentioned tells alot about the age of car...and i have almost always decided on these basis to determine age of car..
