I am old enough to remember when car ownership was something to be aspired to and it was a Sunday morning ritual to wash and polish and carry out basic servicing and checks. Nowadays with PCP and service contracts very few know how to open the bonnet and have no desire to find out.

Well put though Sir, sadly it's more about "has it got Apple Car Play" than "can I see the service history please"
