Why Service History is Your Secret Weapon
In 2025, used car buyers are savvier than ever. The first thing they want? Proof. A verified service history is no longer a nice-to-have — it’s a deal-maker.
It shows your car’s been looked after, helps you stand out in a crowded market, and gives buyers the confidence to commit. While dealerships have relied on this edge for years, Glovbox now puts the same professional tools in your hands.
Even the Big Brands Require Proof
Top automakers set the benchmark for resale confidence:
- Toyota Certified Pre-Owned vehicles must have a full service history to qualify. Toyota says this gives buyers “peace of mind,” increasing both value and buyer trust (Toyota Certified).
- BMW Premium Certified Used Cars also require verified service history — because premium buyers expect premium documentation (BMW Certified).
If service history is the foundation of trust for Toyota and BMW, why shouldn’t private sellers have access to the same tools? With Glovbox, now they do.

Real-World Result
“I kept getting lowball offers on my Prado until I linked my Glovbox report in the ad. One buyer messaged me saying the Logbook Score gave them peace of mind. Sold it that weekend — no haggling.”

That’s the power of verified service history — in action.
