I suppose it depends who you're selling it too.

FSH on a car older than 3 years to me says the owner either didnt know how to service their own car, or simply couldnt be bothered. Which then makes me question whether the rest of the car has been looked after.

My T5 had 'full' volvo main dealer service history at 79,000 miles, yet when I investigated later I found a cam sensor unplugged and an ignition pack plug not plugged in properly and a very dirty air filter despite the supposed full service 4,000 miles ago.
