Hi everyone anybody know where i can get more pages for my service history peninsular apparently take them out before they sell the car.I asked them today if i could get more pages but they seem to be held to ransom "when you bring your car here for a service we will find a page to stamp for you" so now i will take my car elsewhere but i do need pages to keep the history together any help will be appreciated

That is disgraceful, did you buy the car from them then?

the previous owner did i bought it privately but when I spoke to the salesman today those were his words and im irritated enough not to take it back there again the last contact i had with them was for a replacement rear window and things didnt go well. at the time i thought i would give them the benefit of the doubt when i went to collect my car i was told it would be back in a bit so i waited... nobody had told me that they dont change the window themselves but sub out the work i found this a little annoying as i had taken my car to a dealer i had assumed the dealer would do the repairs (its a trust thing)so. in comes the towtruck with my car on the back sadly where the upholsterers had left the doors open for a week the battery was flat so the truck driver broke into the car.Because he couldnt start it and hadnt parked on the flat he rolled the car off the back too fast and smashed the front numberplate off (said oops no offer to replace)i noticed a big scratch across the drivers side window yes window when i said aboout it they said it must of been there before now with todays chat im disgusted it seems unless you want to buy a new tuscan they arent interested in customer service i will NEVER use them again.
That aside Jason in parts has always been very very helpful (credit where it is due)

Ok to answer the question, the bottom line on this is... you can't get any more pages.

Mine are water damaged and myself and the previous owner of my car tried everything to get some fresh ones. No dealers can order them from TVR any more (we spoke to several), TVR don't have any (we spoke to them too), and the Printing company who produced them originally don't have any either.

The only way you will get any new pages is to get them printed yourself.. this is the only option I'm left with at at the moment.

Any printing firms represented here on PH ???

Cheers
Matt

I remembered reading something about additional service pages being made up by a PH member (V8 Archie ??). The following may help:

Drop me a mail. I have a word doc set up to print the pages. IIRC a PH'er posted it some time ago.

Their loss not yours

Getting back to the point in hand can't you print some off? What pages do you need exactly?

I'd of thought you could make some yourself on the PC, surely if the page has the relevant stamps and supporting receipts and work report then its just as valid as a page from a service book?

Am i missing something?
