Servicing frameworks, inspection checklists and what a vehicle really costs to run.
Build a servicing framework for your vehicle — the checks, in the right groups, with your own intervals filled in.
Build an inspection checklist for the specific car you are going to see — fuel type, age and seller included.
Work out what a vehicle actually costs you a month, a year, and per mile or kilometre.
Keep a service history in your own hands, so it survives changing garages and is there when you sell.
Translate intervals into due mileages, so servicing is planned rather than remembered.
See wear as a trend, so you can plan replacement instead of being told at a test that it is already too late.
See what a vehicle actually costs to run and spot a change in fuel consumption early, which is often the first sign that something mechanical is wrong.
Stop looking up the same specifications every time. Fill it in once from the handbook and keep it with the vehicle.
Carry out the same inspection on every car you view, so a decision made in somebody's driveway is based on what you saw rather than what you remember.
