My cars 11 year old, I don't think the resale value will benefit much from having the book stamped every year and I'm tired of handing over £150 for a half arsed service. I'll always get my oil+filter changed at the garage but I think it's about time I learned to do these things myself. Especially when a service kit can be had for 23 quid on ebay.
Do many of you do it? Is it achievable on the driveway and does it have an impact on resale? I have a jack, a few sets of my late grandfathers tools(not sure if they'll suffice car wise but I'll check) and I'll be picking up a manual shortly.
Car is just a 1.2 Clio so I don't imagine it'll be too complicated mechanically but pretty much all I've ever done is change light bulbs and topped all the fluid levels up! Am I doomed?
