Moved house a few months ago and ive lost the full Honda service history, log book and all my PAW receipts!

What a way to wipe out the value of my car!

Was there anything left in the house when you left for the last time?

If yes, why?
If no, then it must be somewhere!

I've move from my sisters place to my dads place, I'm 95% sure it was in the car and I brought it into the house but got a nagging feeling it's been thrown out amongst some junk

I had a good look at my sisters place but it's so cluttered can't do it properly. Found the docs for my old car and last time I remember having it was when I did the last oil change at her place. Going to have another look at hers on Friday but don't hold out much hope!

Rodney...

Can you recover the FSH from the Honda dealer(s)?

One thing I hate about moving is something of value always gets lost.

RU sure you didn't put them in the glove box or somewhere sensible?

Checked all that already. Can you get that info from Honda?

paw can do you duplicate receipts probably

Yeah true, do you think the engine rebuild and gearbox replacement reduces the issue with lack of history? The engine has pretty much been replaced in the last 8 months

possibly i dont think when a car gets to that age the history makes too much differance unless your asking 4-5k for a 50mile a year car

Maybe not, but it can help clinch the deal.
The way out is to keep the car for at least another five years.

I moved flat bout 4 months ago and was all chuffed with myself because I was sure I hadn't left anything till I went to watch tv and realised I'd not brought the remote
