Hi all,
I'm looking at buying a Bravo Sport 1.9 MultiJet diesel. The car's a 2008 '57 plate and drives very well. The car has only come into the showroom today and as a result the papers arent available. What the dealer does know is that its done 41k miles and has only one stamp in the book, hence probably only one service. This may have been at 18k miles and the second one was never done at 36k as the owner was trying to sell the car, or perhaps the first scheduled service was a little late. The dealer seems to think that this is not an issue and I would be buying the car with an extended warranty anyway. Should I put a deposit down now, wait until tomorrow for the book to become available or just forget it? I dont want to take any risks here.
Whats worse, an extra 2k miles at the end of each service (i.e. serviced at 20k and then 20k miles done since) or serviced at 18k (and 23k miles done since). Thanks.
