I'm buying a used Citroen Xsara Picasso with no service history - how much should I knock off to reflect this?

I'm considering buying a used Citroen Xsara Picasso 1.6 Desire, registered July 2003. The car has had two owners and has covered 66,000 miles with 12 months' MOT. It is in very good condition but has no service history. The guide price for "Private good" is £2300, but this assumes that the car has FSH. How much should I mark the price down to reflect the absence of service history?

If it has not got a service history you could knock it down a few hundred pounds, as this will affect the used price in the future.
