TangoVictor32 90 Posted March 28, 2019 Does anyone know how can i obtain an ex royal mail vans service history? Do they use main dealer or have their own mechanic? Van came with no service history but wasn't directly from royal mail so it was sold to someone and was re auctioned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave2302 387 Posted March 29, 2019 I think it is likely Area specific ................ In the remote area I live, all our RM Vans etc are Serviced & Repaired by the large local Garage, which in reality means, knowing some of the retards that work there, and having seen a lot of their inept efforts come through my workshop, I wouldn't touch one with "Someone Elses" However, it used to be the case when I was in Englandshire, that the RM Vans were always well looked after by their own Workshops and were therefore High Milers but a good cheap Van I suspect these days the "Bean Counters" will have closed their Workshops and now they probably use the likes of Halfrauds etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lakeside 94 Posted March 29, 2019 Nope Royal Mail still have their own service centres, well they do around the midlands anyway. I know of four around here. I used to do a lot of contract work for Royal Mail fleet and I wouldn’t touch any of their vans to be honest apart from the overnight long distance Sprinters. Anything that was used as a local delivery van will have stupidly low miles but drive like it’s been to the moon and back over a ploughed up field. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stalker 180 Posted March 29, 2019 TV32, are you advertising it as an ex royal mail van? I would do. Most of the time its blatantly obvious unless they have had a full shoot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
