    Service log book - what to use when full?

    I've recently(ish) started doing my own servicing and I've noticed I'll fairly shortly run out of room in the service log book the car came with (it actually has less room than I'd expect). Now, I know that I could use any old notebook to log services but my tiny mind would like to keep it all looking "original".

    From a quick web search, I couldn't find a supply source for a factory Land Rover service log book (maybe coz they are worried about falsified logs? Or don't want to encourage self-help?).

    Does anyone know where one can be sourced, OR, what do people use?

    Thanks in advance!

    Defender 2.4D Maintenance Check Sheet - miles.pdf

    I hope this works......if not I'll try to find another way to upload it.

    Any work Ive done on my vehicle, gets recorded in a large A4 book, including dates, km's. receipts, and parts used. I service every 10,000km's, new oil, fuel and air filters. Diff and transfer case oils also gets changed. All hubs get stripped down, bearings inspected, and so far they havent needed replacing, just repacking. It may seem a little excessive, but the service is generally only once a year. Gearbox I did at 80,000km's. I bought the vehicle 2nd hand in 2014 with 64,000km's on the clock.

    I saw your other thread, these vehicles aren't that difficult to work on. Plenty of threads in regards to oils etc on here. My suggestion would be use the money you save by servicing it yourself, to buy the best quality oils and filters.

    I use a lined exercise book from the news agent.
    Its got sections for the cars,mower,chipper,motorbike,etc.
    Works fine,i use a paperclip to keep the sections separate.
    If a vehicle is sold i photocopy the relevant pages for the buyer.

    Old school i know,but it works.

    Toyota dealers just start again, their service books go to 200K.
    They just re stamp near the old stamp and sign and date in the corner.
