PLEASE SEE UPDATE.

Hi Guys,

I wonder if you can help. I was all set to go buy a Silver coupe today which has 41k miles, fsh, 2 owners, tax/mot etc etc for £4k. However, ive just had a call about a Black Roadster 2005, just been service, but the owner before last has lost the service book due to ex wife not giving it back. However, its got 44k miles, tax /mot, new tyres, new brakes and has just been fully professionally polished to get the body back to mint, its £5k, and had 5 owners.

Am I being crazy to even consider a car with no service history? Ive mad a quick couple of calls to Chrysler and Merc, but none see to be able to look on their system to see if its been serviced.

Any help/advice would be much appreciated.

The reason for the urgency, is that im going to see the silver one at 3pm today.

Many Thanks
Tommyj
