Servicing your csl
Not sure if this will get much response, what are members views on service histories, as I've never had my services done by nobody other than my self apart from running in service, and a couple in first two years by BMW, past 10 years done my own, no extended warranty, By my reckoning saved a saved my self 15k minimum, car had never needed for nothing, would I take such a big hit if I was to sell , Pre registered One owner 68k miles , NOT A FOR SALE PITCH

Odd Q if not for sale, but could be to get a feeling of agreed value for insurance. Here is my pennies worth.
Lack of Stealers service history would not bother me. My first questions would be Do you have the invoices for oil, parts, etc that tie up with mileage/MOT history? Are you a mechanic by profession? I would then take it from there and have an inspection carried out by James, or Gareth. |

When my car was 3 years old I never bothered to extend the warrant & had work carried out/servicing as it was required. Never stuck strictly to the service indicator. That is, diff oil change, etc are all out of synch. No plans to sell & will continue to service it as advised by someone I trust.
A serious buyer will look further than a device book with a few OEM stamps. |

Regular servicing is crucial to maintaining the longevity and performance of a vehicle. However, if you have missed a few services or deviated from the recommended maintenance schedule, it may not necessarily mean that your car is in bad condition. As long as you have kept up with necessary repairs and maintenance, and the vehicle has been regularly inspected by a trusted mechanic, it should be in good condition. |
