I know of at least two Lamborghinis in the past year that were sold by main dealers and subsequently found out to have inaccurate mileages. I believe the dealers didn't quibble and bought them back immediately but it happens more often than people think.

That makes it really hard to trust any car but I suppose, as these cars are so mileage sensitive, there must be a good market for “mileage correction” services.
I’m wondering how, presumably a dealership has bought the car in and then sold it on not knowing this had been done. If they don’t carry out the proper checks then who would?
When I bought mine from a smaller prestige car dealers, they assured me that they checked all mileage records and that they do so by also checking the gearbox record but I’m thinking that could be waffle. I doubt it would be so worthwhile altering mileage on an old Cali like mine but when you start going into the realms of 150k plus spiders and the like, it could be well worth it.
I also suppose that a one owner car, could be even easier to clock, as it wouldn’t change hands and get mileage recorded by others so easily, especially if it was in its early pre mot years.
