I wouldn't consider buying this car.

The other services were done at the right mileage ?
They use the same oil after break in, as during. I've had it looked up by the local dealer. It makes no sense for them to use an oil that may harm the engine, when inevitably new owner or a test driver romps the car. Think about it...
