That's the head talking, 'Whyman', and rightly so, I would agree. But ... if the heart says otherwise and 'Kev0607' has the means, who are we to argue - says he who is still running a '00 V70!

Over many years, and more transactions than I care to remember, experience has shown me that, sadly, while provable preventative maintenance may make a car easier to sell, it rarely increases it's value significantly over that of
an 'average' example.
