Curiously I've just seen my P/Ex on Autotrader at an LR independent listed as "full Service history" which it didn't have 3 weeks ago.
What is the value of a full history?

Scotland 2012 Range Rover Westminster TDV8 Fuji White

Full doesn't necessarily mean complies with the manufactures recommendations, I've seen so called full service history that's about 3 stamps in the book.

If it were genuine it would be of great value to the seller because on Range Rovers reliability is the fear of most buyers and they'll walk away from a car with poor or no history. But, I don't think it has a £ value per se, but it does raise it's desirability and saleability.

United Kingdom 2012 Range Rover Vogue TDV8 Santorini Black

I now do my own basic servicing as I know it’s done correctly using top quality items. Doing it myself means changing the oil and filter every 3 to 4000 miles for reasonable cost. Many mechanics have told me frequent quality oil and filter changes along with fuel and air filters being replaced on time is the secret to a healthy engine.

I will hand it over to a very well trusted specialist (in Wendover) annually for a service and check over which helps identify anything I may well miss.

I hope my car carry’s on for many, many years…. 2012 4.4 TDV8 Vogue Santorini black ivory leather

It should mean exactly that. Anyone claiming otherwise doesn't have a car with full service history.

I live quite near Wendover and was wondering who I should use for my newly acquired 405. Can you tell me who this is?
