New to this forum, just bought a 2005 seat ibiza fr 1.8t 20v turbo. the owner told me she had lost the service history but it does have some, the car has only done 30k but thats not the point-is there any way i can trace the history ive rung seat but unlike vw/audi who have a central database for this seat dont have one, any help would be appreciated, thanks

Ask where she got the services done I'm sire they will keep a record then just ask tem to re-stamp it, I think you can do this.

slight problem-i now cant get in touch with the previous owner, so im guessing i wont be able to trace it without the names of the garages. why do audi an vw have a central database and seat not???

Could you not write the previous owner a letter?

just found out the last service march (09) was done at rustys (seat dealer) in shorpe, this is where the car was originally purchased from, but apparntly they have updated their system and can only trace back one year to the last service, wrote to previous owners and had no reply. any more ideas??
