True. I kept all the receipts on the GTi and noted EVERYTHING but that got scrapped, and the tank isn't going to get sold in one piece. Even if I broke it, everyone would be aware it's a DHY with a GT2056 strapped to it.
A new car i'd actually get a little folder up on my bookcase and document absolutely everything. The tank.. not so much
That was aimed at Matt really, but you jumped in before me lol.
But yeah.....does seem a little pointless if you know you're gonna scrap/break it. Was a bit gutting when I ended up binning the complete full VW service history from the Golf after breaking it, and the service book and a few scraps of paper that I got with the HDi as well lol. But I will still keep the history unless I buy another complete shitter...and if I do it probably won't get serviced anyway lol.
But then my Mum shredded all the service history (except the book) with the 6 year old and 3 year old, 1 owner, cars that she traded in last year! She didn't want anyone seeing her name, address or part of her card number.
