Hi all

Just bought an ex British Gas VW Caddy with no service history (apparently the previous owner did have the history but lost it). Does anyone know if British Gas have there own service department or if they outsource and any idea how i would go about getting a copy of it

Thanks in advance smile

I've bought and sold quite a few ex British Gas vans recently. Caddy and Doblo's. All came with a4 printouts documenting the dates and mileages of services. The services were carried out at various garages- many of them were from quick fit/ halfords type places. They did follow manufacturer recommended intervals.

Thanks nookster.

Was it on British Gas headed paper or just plain a4, If it was from BG I might be able to get hold of a copy (getting through to the right person might be difficult though)

i presume the record is taken from a British Gas database. It has details of the vehicle - reg , VIN radio code , eng no etc along with service entries. I don't recall it being on headed paper as such. I may have a copy in my office. I'll post it on here tomorrow. I think British Gas would be able to get you a copy of you find the relevant department. All ex British Gas vans sales are dealt with by XBG Fleet management. They may be able to help.
