Service history answers

A service history check is for a buyer who wants dealer service records, separate from Hidden History. The UK price is £8.95. It does not include outstanding finance, write-off category or stolen markers, and it does not guarantee that every independent garage visit is listed. A blank result means no matching record was returned.

Why Checking Service History Matters

A vehicle's service history reveals how well it has been maintained throughout its life. Regular servicing can prevent mechanical problems and ensure long-term reliability, while missing services can signal potential neglect.

Gain Negotiation Power

Dealers often advertise vehicles as having a "full service history," but this isn't always the case. If our report shows gaps or missing records, that gives you an opportunity to negotiate a lower price.

Verified Data Direct from the Source

Our system connects with brand-authorised service networks to retrieve authentic data recorded by main dealers. This eliminates guesswork and ensures you're relying on genuine service records.

What You'll Learn

  • All recorded service dates and mileage readings
  • Which garage or brand network carried out the work
  • Whether the vehicle has full, partial, or missing service history
  • Any missed maintenance intervals that may affect reliability
  • Manufacturer maintenance recommendations

Always check a vehicle's service history before buying. It's one of the most effective ways to avoid unexpected problems and ensure you're getting a fair deal.
