Time to have a chat with Trading Standards me thinks It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
I think you should raise the issue with the dealer from whom you bought the car & trading standards if their response is not 100%.
I would also contact the previous owner(s) to check the mileage & service history.
Good luck.
Keep us posted.

No update as such, as the last service was well before the mileage I bought the car with and the date before the garage got the car I'm not going to waste my effort contacting the garage. I know what their answer would be, and to be fair should be, this probably happened before they got the car.
I have however received the logbook and emailed the previous owner, I googled the name and I'm almost 100% I have the correct person, time will tell if I get a reply

Someone has mentioned that it may be a mobile guy, theres a few that sell their services on here and are known by their user names but I wouldnt know their business names so it could be along the same lines?

This car was in south London and the northview servis specialist is in Nottingham. PeteHse who wrote the below has brought from the same place and now we have the same thing. The number is for a window company it's exactly the same issue as PeteHse had so I would like to know if he got to the bottom of it.
