If you ever plan to sell your car — and most people do — keeping a full service history is one of the highest-return investments you can make. Industry data shows a full main-dealer history adds 8–12% to typical resale value on cars under 8 years old. Full independent history? 5–8%. Patchy history? You'll lose money.
Buyers don't trust the unknown
A service book full of stamps tells a buyer the car has been cared for. No history means they imagine the worst, and the price reflects that.
Independent vs main dealer
Buyers no longer demand main-dealer history once a car is over 5 years old. A stamped independent history at the right interval is just as good — at a fraction of the price.
