to the best of my knowledge, the odometer indicates total distance covered by the car, its the Same thing as mileage. you just have to find out if your speedometer is caliberated in miles or kilometers. American specs (especially toyota cars) are usually in miles. 5miles equals 8kilometers. do your division and multiplication.

It means it has covered 232,981km, (multiply by 1.66)

If this is actual mileage it is fair.

For a 6 year old car I doubt this mileage I gues it's a 2007 pimped to look like a 2009, post the vin I'll run it and give you specifics.

The car has covered 224,560km. Quite high though but if properly maintained with good service record, you could get a good bargain. You are also likely to spend more on maintenance at this mileage.

Not to embarrass the OP but how can car owner be able to work make enough money to buy car yet not understand the basic things about cars.

Its like someone not being able to tie their shoe lace imho

If a new owner can't understand the concept of mileage, vin, EPA mileage, How do the grasp the concept of maintenance schedule?

Please sometimes wiki and google will help explain these things better then we can see how it applies to the "Nigerian environment" that defies all the others in the world.

It is not about ITK but more like not understanding the information on the dash.

There are many other things that is used to guess the condition of a used car and getting the info of 140 k miles is not enough to say it is a good car which is why the vin was mentioned nothing can take the place of physical inspection.it will be irresponsible to recommend you buy a car 6000 miles away based on your information
