As i'm currently in the market to buy a new car, coming across this was fairly worrying, surely this can't be legal...

Pre-Stamped Service Book

Its said that:

Yeah right, like someone who's going to buy this is going to do that.

Thoughts?

 

Can't see how it'd be illegal. It's just a book at the end of the day. I sold a car with a filled service history from another car. The buyer was told though, and it just had details of what needed to be changed, and when.

If asked if it was genuine, and the seller lied, I can see how the buyer would have comeback (if they ever found out).

On the one side it's good to replace a damaged/lost book. On the other making a fake service history (and advertising a car as such) is surely illegal.

 

Legal to sell, but if you used it to obtain a financial benefit, presumably you would be comitting fraud.

 

I must be missing something. What would it say on the stamp? If the work was not done at the place indicated on the stamp, then what is the point. If its just a stamp for a stamps sake then why not just buy a stamp yourself and stamp away.....

 

Even philately has a dark side.
