Very, very remote chance. Its at a dealer that stacks its junk cars in the dirt. He won't have any documentation to back it up other than a carfax. With the 5 digit odometer and 2 owners, its possible that it could have lined up to seem like the mileage is real. 145k and 245k cars can look that nice if they were cared for.

As for using this a daily driver to convert to vegetable oil. Probably not a good idea. I feel the whole veggie oil thing is a bad idea in the first place, but this car is going to feel very primitive when compared to a W123 and W124. Also, for a $5000 budget you can get a very nice example from a private individual that knows the history. Car dealers with inventories like those should be avoided.
