The Used Car Market in 2025: Why Service History Is Non-Negotiable

Meet Emma. She’s eyeing a used sedan online, but something’s off — no service history listed.
Now meet Jack. He’s selling a reliable ute, fully serviced — but offers are low.
In 2025’s ultra-competitive used car market, trust is everything. And service history is the new currency buyers and sellers trade on.
Fleet Auto News predicts strong demand for second-hand vehicles — but notes that only the most transparent listings will stand out.
Enter service records: the detail that separates trusted deals from total maybes.
And Glovbox is making those records easier than ever to create and share.

• RedBook Inspect says it clearly: “Service history is crucial — it tells buyers the car’s been maintained.”
• Motorfind warns that skipping this step is a gamble — vague claims often hide major repairs.
• Consumer Affairs Victoria lists service records as a required check to reduce buyer risk.
• Finder reports buyers may pay thousands more for well-documented vehicles.

In short: service history builds trust, and trust builds value.
Glovbox turns that into action.

Glovbox transforms your receipts into a shareable, buyer-ready Proof of Service Report:

• Extracted data: service dates, kms, and verified workshop names
• Logbook Score: shows buyers how well your car’s been cared for
• Shareable link: perfect for listings, DMs, or SMS — no PDFs required

Sellers like Jack can now confidently write: “Proof of Service Report available via Glovbox” — and buyers like Emma take it seriously.
