TBH a stamp does'nt mean diddly squat as they can be purchased very easily ::)

In this forum we do no not support, condone, encourage, or otherwise participate in the illegal provision of forged dealer stamps. Any such posts will be deleted and the offenders penalised at the discretion of the administrator team, 'flogging through the fleet' being the favourite (look it up).

(pssst... where can you get them and how much do they cost?  ;))


Edit: THAT'S NOT ME! THIS SITE IS LOONEY, TRANSLATING 'O F F E N D E R S' to 'OFFBUMPERS'!  >:(

I always service my own cars and put the receipts in the back of the service book with the date and milages writen on when the service was done.


That's better than a Service History in my eyes...  Exactly what I do and would look for when buying!!!   I can get a book stamped for a pint or two, I wouldn't IT'S WRONG...  so there, means nothing!!!!

RANT OVER!  DC, Over and Out......

Well I DIY because I can't afford dealer servicing, also not many jobs are too difficult the only scarey one I know of is the cam belt.

I might leave the thermostat untill I next visit my parents.

My dad is a retired mechanic so does tend to know how to fix cars. However it is years since I have stripped an engine (complete rebuild on a Rootes short stroke 1600)

After having the MV6 repatriated a couple of years back, the breakdown insurance people (understandably) asked for service history.  I just gave them the dealers name, date, and mileage.  Worth the annual £60 Masterfit minor service (read oil change).... ;)

I've never had a car with any service history until my Elite's so never been to a dealer for service, won't be happening now either....

Good job I have a retired Peugeot/BMW/Skoda mechanic for advice - not well enough to help now though.

Never had an issue with anyone with DIY, but then I used to cover stupid mileages in a banger which was reliable
