Like @mountainmanjoe said, it’s difficult without a paper trail. 

But, you can check things like wear & tear on the steering wheel, driver’s seat, pedals, compression test the engine, etc.

Some car’s ECU an be checked with a fancy dealer level scan tool to reveal the mileage stored in it. 

Otherwise, go with the cues I mentioned above.
