Interesting video with lots of good advice, but I cannot agree about the service history not being important. So you bought a car that had a full service book and it went wrong,...bad luck for you, but in most cases a regular service and oil change makes a huge difference on most modern cars , especially those that do not use a change driven engine. That all important cam belt and or water pump needs attention, also an automatic gearbox service even though the manufacturers say, 'sealed for life' which is bad advice. If any of these things are ignored it can lead to the death of a perfectly good engine or gearbox! Yes naturally it is wise to check the MOT history to get a feel for what has occured during the vehicles life and what has been replaced, but this is ony half the story!
Yeah that's something I completely changed my recommendation on myself too, since I recorded this video on the main channel quite some time ago. Forgot that was even still in there
