Did you know?.......... A full service history worth ‘up to £1,500
Cars with a full service history are worth more and are easier to sell, a new study by ICM Research has found. According to the research, a full service history on a car could increase its value by 26%.
With the average used car selling for around £5,500 today nationally, the findings indicate that a full service record could be worth up to £1,500.The research found that one in three buyers would not buy a car without a full service history, and that greater value is placed on cars with a full service history from a franchised dealer than from an independent dealer.
In fact, only 32% valued a car the same if it was serviced by an independent garage, while 68% valued a franchised dealer’s service stamp more highly. This means that using a franchised dealer for servicing will add value to your car when the time comes to sell it.
Using a franchised dealer brings other benefits for customers too. Genuine parts come with at least a one year warranty, while fully-trained specialist technicians will not only keep your car running at peak efficiency but also have access to important vehicle software updates.
