BA XR8 Boss 260: reading between the lines of a service history

A pile of stamped logbook pages tells you the car went somewhere. It rarely tells you what the workshop found. For a BA XR8 with a long history, which invoice details changed your decision to go and see it? I’d start by matching dates and kilometres and looking up any work described only as “rectify oil leak”.

I’d sort the paperwork by date, then highlight repeat complaints. Three small invoices for the same leak could tell a more interesting story than one large bill.
