Is this BMW an Irish car?

My daughter is looking at a used BMW 316 from 2018. The odometer is in miles not kilometres, and the dealer says it is not an import. Could this be correct? I thought all cars sold in Ireland had odometers in kilometres. Thank you for your advice.

Our answer:

Hi Ken,

It is easy to change the units of the odometer in that car from km to miles, so that probably explains it. The main dials are analogue and, so long as their units are in km/h, then you know it's not a UK import. You could also check it with Cartell.ie
