Everyone lies about mileage

You are a Lithuanian perekupas — a car flipper. You start with €5,000, no car, and a laptop in an empty garage. Everything after that is your fault.

Browse the ads on Autogidas, find something that looks like a bargain, and arrange to meet the seller. The car and the seller appear in the city; a line on your minimap takes you to them. Walk around it. Look at the rust. Then start talking money.

About a third of the ads are lying to you

Rolled-back odometers. Undisclosed accidents. A hidden taxi past. An import nobody mentioned. The advert says one thing, the car's real history says another — and the gap between them is the whole game.

You can pay for a history report before you buy and know the truth. Or you can save the money, trust the seller's face, and find out later.

It arrives filthy. That is the point.

Every car you buy comes covered in road grime. Take it to H2Auto and wash it by hand — soap it, rinse it, scrub the stubborn dirt off the sills. A clean car photographs better. A car that photographs better sells for more.

• Fix it — replace worn parts at Autoaibė, and the condition resets to new
  
• Wheel it — buy rim sets at Autowheels and fit them in the garage
  
• Paint it — any colour, plus spoilers and body parts
  
• Break it — real deformation damage, and dents stay dented until you pay to fix them

Then sell it

Photograph the car with your phone, write the ad, set your price and list it on Autogidas. It stands on the row outside your garage — exactly as you customised it — until a buyer turns up. Price it too high and it sits there. Price it too low and you have just worked for free.

Cooparts: the gamble

A US salvage auction that ships to Lithuania. The cars are far cheaper because they are wrecked. Bid, win, wait for the boat — and find out whether it arrives, arrives destroyed, gets stolen on the way, or was never real.

Vilnius

Drive a real city. The Cathedral, Gedimino tower, Sporto Rumai, the districts, traffic that obeys the lights, and pedestrians who do not always look. Fuel costs €2 a litre and you pay per litre. Insurance is not optional — drive without insurance and the fines start arriving. Hit a police car and that costs you too.

Full drift physics, indicators, headlights, damage — this is a driving game as much as a trading game.

Playable in Lithuanian
