Hi guys,
I have just bought 2 days ago an 04 Smart SilverPulse Cab with 38k miles on the clock.
Immaculate inside and out
The car was last serviced 600 miles ago, though this was 2 years previous in 2012
The previous owner has had the car parked in his garage and barely used for the last 2 years
apart from getting it MOT'd each year
This is all verified by the service history and previous MOT's
My question is this, normally when I buy a new car I get it serviced for piece of mind.
But with this one having only covered 600 miles BUT 2 years ago since it was last done I'm not sure what to do ?
I was contemplating getting a C service due to the mileage and the previous was stamped as an A
Though this was done by a main dealer but not a Smart one
So not sure what was actually done
Everything on the car works as it should but with being a Cab model I am not sure if the soft top runners will have been greased, hood tensioned etc on the last service with them not being Smart franchised
Though this too works flawlessly and is quiet as a mouse not grinding noises or anything
So ....
To service or not to service ?
I was considering using a local-ish to me ( They're based in Ackworth near Wakefield ) place that do Smart servicing as they seem quite competitive
prestigeservice
does anyone have any knowledge of them ?
If anyone can advise what they recommend
Thanks...
Dean
