I’ve never bought a new car and the majority have been private sale that come with itemised receipts. One Subaru for instance had receipts for 500 quid annual services 😮 madness.
If I was to buy a car with handwritten/owner history with receipts I’d need to understand that he is a competent and qualified mechanic. If I was buying a MG GTB from a keen enthusiast I’d go this route.
Otherwise I’d view the seller as a skinflint/tight ass and I’d adjust my price offered thus wiping out the money he’d saved so what’s the point in DIY servicing in this respect?
The Aygo/c1/107 is/are awesome cars. A true sucessor to the likes of original mini and Dyane etc. Overpriced but at c110 a month for 2yrs your laughing. I’m down to 120 @ month at the moment on them with a dealer….the closer to the end of the month the better the price becomes…
Back to home serviced cars. Out of interest do you think the chap uses Continental replacement tyres or Event/Linglong? I guess the later. Car tyres are very important to me.
