Keep a complete notebook, giving specific details. That would impress me a hell of a lot more than: > I thought to myself, how can I make my car look like it has had regular > services?

Deception is definately not what you want to portray to any future purchaser of the car. If you can show your notes that you're really doing the work, maybe include receipts for materials so it doesn't look like it's fudged entirely (see above) it should be just fine. That having been said, saving money is fine, but why not have Saab do it at least for the warranty period? Dave Hinz
