I often see reference to a "Full Service History" in letters and answers in your newspaper column (and car adverts). The buyer should be warned that, in law, this only means that you are provided with a service book. The service book could show improper servicing intervals or even show no record of service according to Consumer Direct. Buyer beware - check in detail the entries in the service book before buying. The law should stop this grossly misunderstood claim in adverts. I bet 99% of car buyers think they are getting something different.
