Everything your car knows and you forgot.
No surprises.
No breakdowns.
One kit for the machine that quietly runs your week: every service, every date, every cost in one place — plus the checklist for the moment a warning light appears and your brain goes blank. Works for a new car, an old car and the one you are about to buy.

Same calm style as trullz.com — free tools, zero hassle. Part of the TRULLZ product family (travel far? get the Trip Kit).
Fill it once. Then relax.
Page 3: registration, tyre size, oil spec, insurance. Walk out to the car once and copy the numbers instead of guessing later.
Page 4: the last invoice in the glovebox has the date and mileage. That single line is your baseline.
Page 7: inspection, insurance, road tax, tyre change. With reminders two weeks early — not on the day.
Page 6: tyres, lights, fluids, once a month. It is the cheapest maintenance there is.
THE ONE RULE
Write it down the day it happens, not when it breaks. A car with records is worth more, costs less and never ambushes you.
Write every visit down, even the small ones. When you sell, this page is worth real money at the negotiating table.
| Date | Mileage | What was done | Cost | By |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Rattles, warning lights, worn bits. Write them the moment you notice — things you "will mention next time" never get mentioned.
The real number per month.

Divide by kilometres driven this year — that is your real cost per km. Most people guess less than half the truth.
Ten minutes beats a tow truck.

Red means stop now.
Oil pressure, coolant, brakes, battery, temperature. Engine off, warning triangle out, call for help. Driving on a red light turns a small bill into a big one.
Engine management, ABS, tyre pressure, emissions. You can usually drive on calmly — but not for a month.
Indicators, fog lights, cruise control. Nothing wrong, nothing to do.
| What | Date | Reminder at | Done |

Sell calm. Get paid more.

THE LAST THING
A car is not a machine that breaks — it is a machine that tells you in advance. This kit is where you listen.
