How do folks keep the documentation of maintenance? Do you keep all receipts of the parts and labor, reports (annual inspection etc) or just maintain an excel sheet.
I do not keep a single receipt. I do file inspection reports but sometimes they get lost before filing. I maintain an excel sheet with as many details as possible, like what part was used, make and model. How much did I pay for fixing something? And every entry comes with the odometer reading. I only do basic maintenance myself, rest is done by the mechanic.
I do not plan to sell/trade-in either of the cars in the near future, still, I am curious how do others do it.
