Something to think about -
None of my cars has any service
records - and yet they are all well maintained .
I might not exactly
be "normal" (no comment please :-), but the real test is to take
the car yourself and give it a good inspection. You can tell pretty easy
if the owner has been kind to it.
Case in point - My Dads old
1975 diesel Peugeot was dealer maintained for its first 100K miles - up
until the motor self destructed due to totally incompetent service
work.
For the next 400K miles (on the new motor I put in) it never
saw a dealer or garage other than for tires and brakes. Never had a
problem with it.
Same with my V8. It has not seen a dealer or
garage since 1999, but I have gone far and above "regular
maintenance" on it.
So - never say never is my motto.
