Yes, but at least it's only been abused like this for 50k. How many punters are going to get their cars serviced more often than manufacturer's recommendations?

When I bought mine it had one service - at 20k. One was allegedly done when I bought it  at 41k but I went over it myself for good measure. Since then it's had about half a dozen!

On the one hand, it's a shame it's been running about on dirty oil, but then again, the fewer times a main stealer has opened the bonnet the better :-X

But the manufacturer says 4.5/7.5k MAX (this one is borderline which it is), not 10k.  So its not even serviced to manufacturers spec.

now thats a hell of an asking price!
I'll have a go at that, but as you say the Buy it Now price is stupid, especially as it has missed lots of services, my max bid is a lot less than he is dreaming of.
