A full service history is important whatever the age of the car, almost irrespective of mileage. Even if a car is low mileage, service intervals are usually given as both a mileage and a time period - 12,000 miles or 12 months for example - so a low mileage car should still have the number of services required by its age to be regarded as up to date.

Buyers will generally look for a car with a full service history over one without, and like for like we would expect a car with a full history to attract a higher selling price than one without.
