Victims who bought cars and vans with clocked mileage say they feel “mugged off” by the fraudsters who wound back a total of 2,000,000 miles off vehicle odometers.
Ryan Regan, Thomas Hamilton and Darren Cradduck, all from Kent, were all given suspended sentences at Canterbury Crown Court on Friday.
Shaun Thomas, 61, a bricklayer from Hastings, unknowingly bought a van from the group which had had nearly 100,000 miles taken off the odometer.
He said: “Everything seemed to be legit, but I got turned over, I feel a bit of a prat.”
