Interestingly one pre-video ad here was from a firm manipulating the odo (yes, to show a non-real km/miles). In the ad they then used and named Carly to prove their manipulation on the Bmw is undetected by service tech. What a sneaky ad-sense, right? If I were Carly, I'd not have them do that.

Blue / Red issue... Back in the 90's I had the EXACT same issue with a Blue ford Escort, Did due diligence, HPI check etc, came back clean so I bought the car (from a dealer), several weeks later when pulling a trim panel out in the boot I saw red paint, Like you I was thinking of all possibilities, respray, primer accident repair etc, but again like you we were finding red paint everywhere. internally but all the doors / boot / bonnet had no sign of red paint. Eventually I was so concerned I contacted the vehicle crime unit of my local police station and voluntarily handed them the car to strip. What they found was shocking.... the shell was that of stolen red J reg escort which had the vin from a blue K reg escort stuck down over the top of the J reg vin so at a quick look there was no evidence of tampering with the vin, then all parts from the K reg fitted to the shell. After lots of investigation it was found the original K reg had been badly damaged but with no insurance claim hence not showing on HPI, then rebuilt using the stolen shell. Thankfully as I bought on finance from a dealer I was able to hand the car back !

Regarding the colour. Years ago we bought a new Reliant Scimitar . We specified the colour to be Burgundy with tan upholstery. After a few months we noticed that the paint around the drivers door edges was rubbing off to reveal white paint underneath. The factory had taken a car already painted white and repainted it burgundy in order to fulfill our order, instead of building a new car to our colour specification, presumably because as a low volume production model, this was financially better for the manufacturer. Probably the same thing occurred with your car!

strange when looking at the red coming through that the clip holding a wire or cable has been painted blue, suggesting paintwork at some point. A HPI check doesn't guarantee a car has not been involved in an accident, if a previous owner was just 3rd party for instance or a track day car that has had a few off's etc both instances the owner would be paying for repair not an insurance company and therefore any major repairs will not be recorded on HPI.

It's a ringer. The mismatched paint and the missing undertrays and shrouds are deeply suspicious.

Got to admit the first time I saw the red paint showing through underneath the Blue paint I thought it looked like red primer
