Is he? M3 Supplement books go for £30 alone on ebay.

But why would you want another cars service book?? Your either going to frame it and keep it or con someone when you sell you car that had no history.

I bought an owners manual and service history off ebay (it was a 318i though) for the manual/folder/map, ive still got the service book but i aint fooling anyone with it saying 318i on the front.
Selling the service history book is a bit of a cheek but the rest someone might genuinly want. Either way it will have the chassis number in the service book so unless your a mong it wouldnt be an issue falling for it. |

I could disagree on that one..... say you had a car with no history but a service book... you could open the staples and swap the service pages with your book thus retaining you vin etc but gaining a service history. sly, untrustworthy, et but would fool alot of ppl dont you think and could add more than 100 quid to some shedded m3.........
just a thought.

based on some of the daft prices people pay on ebay on basis that its got to be a bargin then why not try for the £100?? just look at CSL alloys and some E30 M3parts always going for more than at local dealers!! |

I particularly like the fact that "genuine" and "reprint" appear almost adjacent to one another in the same sentence!

At least it is just an owner`s manual. Useful if after a decade of M3 ownership you suddenly wish to know how to change a bulb, or unlock the boot or something! A secondhand service history from an unknown car can only serve one purpose. I have two of these, and plug spanners, and footrests, and whole spare cars. (which I do not consider to be particularly valuable) How many laps of the `ring do I get for that lot?!? |

He's 100% correct though, if you go into BMW and order a manual, this is what you get, a genuine BMW re-print. BMW have been doing re-prints for years now. What's not right though is the price hike from £3 that BMW would charge you for it!! |
