Do you have carfax where you are? If not maybe you can find a dealer who has
worked on it in the past and a pattern might show up. Can/will your
licensing authority give you past owners names?

Hmm it is Europe and I'm not sure what kind of info I will get from CardFax
since the car only was on Germany and now in Spain. So I don't want to pay
Cardfax for nothing.

Related to owners names... in Europe is very dificult to get personal
information since the laws agains that are very strong I don't know how is
the law at the States but at EU is very very restrictive.

Thank you anyway.

Really? I saw at Autotap (a USB OBD-II reader) a parameter saying "Odometer"
but what I have is only the manual of the program so I don't know if the
information is retreived or not.

Thank you,
