From my experience, if the engine oils were changed just a 'few hours' ago by the current owner, this would be very evident when taking the oil samples for analysis, as the oils should look 'as new', though this is more difficult to ascertain with gearbox oil due to lack of combustion contaminates. Therefore, do you know if the engine oils looked 'as new', or were they dark in colour? This basic information would be useful in determining if the owner is telling 'porkies'!
