    No wonder your post count is so high with these one word tibits. :rolleyes:

    Op, go for the car with the better service history, if that is the car you want to get. At the same time, there are plenty of other options in that price bracket, but it is your choice. The 2006 model seems like a better bet to me though, but without seeing them myself, I cannot say for sure. A timing belt change would be worth a few bob in its own right.

    Again, the car with a fuller service history would win my bet. Oh, and proof of work done, of course.
