What happened
Cazoo's Chief Marketing Officer, Lucy Tugby, urged Andy Burnham to tighten rules regarding vehicle clocking. She noted that current laws only address knowingly selling an altered vehicle, leaving a specific loophole for the act of altering mileage itself.

Why it matters
A survey of used-car dealers found that 60% believe vehicle clocking has increased over the past five years. Since a clocked car makes a vehicle appear newer than it is, this practice could cause second-hand buyers to overpay for used cars.
