Should I be worried about buying a low mileage used car with three owners?

I am looking to purchase a 2006 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2, 52,000 miles and I purchased an Experian vehicle check. I noticed there have been three owners, however, one owner only owned it for five days. Secondly, the seller claims the low mileage is due to an old lady being one of previous owners (bought 2008). Should I be worried?

Nothing much to worry about. The 5-day owner might have been a small time dealer. You can check the mileage record at its MoTs here: www.gov.uk/check-mot-history/
