KM TURNED BACK

I bought three vehicles from them. The cars are stripped from spare, Strange that all three has no spare wheel front badge, battery, or parcel tray. The best part the Honda CRV show 112 000 km but when you open the service book the car was service up to 180 000 eight years ago. So SMD what is the real km? How can you be a car dealer and turning km back? Read SA law and diced for yourself what do you call it. Maybe ***** will be a hint. I could not understand why a car with that km gearbox would be broken. They do not answer their phones either their email. Fortunate for them I am working abroad, and I am not in the country to sort this out. The second car was VW cc which was sold as a runner but that status the car had for 10 minutes. Then the timing belt snaped. Sorry I agreed to the condition of Voetstoots, wonder if that will be included altering km. The best stay away from them.
