Plus you're not gonna know whether someone had their timing belt replaced unless you see a receipt.
I'm probably gonna change the timing belt anyway, if it's near (or past) the mileage where it should have been done.

For my own cars, I don't care about resale enough to bother writing down all the maintenance I do. I drive them into the ground anyway, so by the time I sell, there are enough cosmetic issues that it doesn't matter that it's in great mechanical condition.
